Great Christmas market! The area around the skating rink is bonkers tho! It is so crowded, I thought for sure we were all going to get something, and sure enough, by Christmas day we all had a cold. Don't go here around Christmas if you don't want to have to shove your way through a crowd. It is not pleasant! The quay area was somewhat better. Either Vancouver needs more free family events or they need to start charging for everything now. Just way, way too many people, it's not safe.

The ice skating rink was a good spot to spend a couple of hours. parking was difficult to find.

Have a lot of different choices of food and stuff. Just really need to take time to line up. 😅

We visited the Christmas market. Cute little cabins and free admission (as it should be!) was a plus. Looks like there were delicious food and drinks being offered but unfortunately, it was so crowded that we couldn't buy anything. Difficult to move around, even. With one kid and a tween, the experience was not very pleasant. We ended up eating diner in Gastown.

Love it, especially the Christmas market. Parking is a real challenge, but part of the deal I guess.

Went saturday night. Was pretty busy. Line up on foods are long. View of downtown vancouver is nice. Parking is crazy. Best way is take the sea bus.

The scenery is beautiful and well maintained, with thoughtful and efficient management throughout the area. The environment is clean, organized, and pleasant, making it very comfortable to visit. During the winter season, there are real fire outdoor grills that add warmth and atmosphere, as well as complimentary ice skating on real ice, which is a wonderful experience. During the Christmas season, the Christmas market creates a lively and festive atmosphere, with plenty of activity, lights, and seasonal charm, making the area especially vibrant and enjoyable.

Awesome spot! Went for the night Christmas market. What a blast for the family
Exceeded our expectations. It was raining a bit, but still a lot of activities going on. Seabus from Waterfront was packed as many people were trying to get to Christmas market here too. Once you are done with the market, try walking around North Vancouver and get amazed by the views.

Okay 👍

One thing for sure it was the best christmas market place at the shipyards that i have been to. Plus it was was free to go there. The way it was set up was easy to explore and enjoy yourself with loved ones. There was so many more vendors from yummy food to merchandise to be bought, and all the local shops around the facilities were amazing. It was endless of fun with my family, oh yeah there was also a outdoor ice rink, which was fairly nice size too. It's a must see event for sure. I'm super happy this existed. Hats off to everyone who made this possible.

Cool area during Christmas they have a small festival here with booths and small stores. Pleasant place to hang out during the holidays.
Conveniently located near many other restaurants and cafes.
Used the skating rink was fun but very busy
