Children day activity: Fireworks at VIC Johnston for Canada Day

The fireworks at VIC Johnston for Canada Day are the ultimate family day activity. I’d like to outline the great experience at this event.

Vic Johnston Arena will be celebrating Canada Day. I attended this festival last year and it was a blast and one of the fun summer activities.

The event started earlier on in the evening because they hosted many fun summer activities like crafts, face painting and fake tattoos. They also had a nice BBQ to fill our hungry stomachs after such a fun family day activity. I really enjoyed it and would suggest this experience for the family. The kids really enjoy the fireworks that light up the sky I believe they start around 9:30 – 10 pm. It is definitely an event that should not be missed- it’s Canada Day!

How many of you have been to Vic Johnston Arena for Canada Day? What are your opinions on this family day activity?
