The world has come to know Whistler as a paradise for playing outdoors, and rightly so, but now, thanks to a vibrant year-round program of engaging visual art exhibitions and events, Whistler has been not-so-quietly becoming one of BC’s arts and culture hubs. Nestled nicely among some of nature’s finest works, Whistler is also home to the Audain Art Museum, a gorgeous home recently opened to established and emerging BC artists, as well as an important collection of Indigenous pieces.

Fuelled by adventure, creativity, and giggles, Whistler’s longest-running festival – the Whistler Children’s Festival – is back for its 41st year!
The Whistler Children’s Festival promises adventure around every corner of Whistler’s Cultural Connector, featuring roving circus performers, magic shows, interactive experiences, and internationally acclaimed children’s performers.
Over the Victoria Day weekend, the Maury Young Arts Centre will host six show-stopping theatre performances and twelve creative workshops, including acts like Juno-nominated Ginalina and America’s Got Talent ventriloquist Michael Harrison – just two highlights of this year’s lineup.
There are also many FREE activities to enjoy every day of the Fest – including puppet shows, scavenger hunts, classical quartets, the Nylon Zoos and more. Get your walking (or dancing) shoes on and prepare for a jam-packed family adventure all weekend long!
