FVDED in the Park is a music festival at Surrey’s Holland Park that features over 24 rap, hip-hop, R&B, alternative and electronic music artists.
In 2026 the event takes place on July 3rd and 4th.
FVDED in the Park is so popular it tends to sell out. Another event that happens around the same time is Carnaval del Sol. It’s an event celebrating Latin music, food and culture in Vancouver. There is also the Khatsahlano Street Party which is free to attend.
Other great events with music in July include Port Moody Ribfest, the Fort Langley Jazz & Arts Festival, Surrey Fusion Festival, Vancouver Folk Music Festival and Mission Folk Music Festival.

FVDED Location and Admission
The FVDED in the Park music festival takes place at Holland Park at 13428 Old Yale Road. The park is across the street from the Central City Shopping Centre in Surrey and not far from the King George SkyTrain Station.
Ticket pricing for 2026 has not yet been publicly listed on the website at the time of writing. In previous years, two-day general admission, GA+, and VIP passes were offered.
In 2025 two-day general admission passes started at around $300. There were also two-day GA+ passes available for about $370 that included express entry and flushable washrooms. Two-day VIP passes started at about $452 and included the same perks as the GA+ passes, plus access to private standing areas near the stages and a private bar.
(Note: VIP areas are for ages 19+. Minors aren’t allowed.)
Prices for 2026 are likely to be similar to past ranges, but exact pricing has yet to be confirmed.
What to Bring and Not to Bring
As with many music festivals these days, there are things you are allowed to take to FVDED in the Park and things you are not allowed to take.
Recommended Things to Take
Good things to bring include a hydration pack, sunscreen and a sweater for the evening. Free water refill stations are typically available for hydration packs and bottles.
Umbrellas are not allowed, even if rain is expected. The festival continues regardless of the weather. Pack a raincoat if the forecast calls for rain.
Prohibited Items at the Festival
Commonly banned items include alcohol, outside food and beverages, sharp objects, glass, cameras with detachable lenses, selfie sticks, Frisbees, skateboards and other items listed by festival organizers. Drugs and weapons are strictly prohibited.
Smoking is permitted only in designated areas. Dogs are not allowed unless they are working guide dogs.
All bags are usually inspected prior to entry.
FVDED Parking and Transit
Holland Park is beautiful, but it doesn’t offer many parking options. Using public transit is highly recommended, and Central City SkyTrain Station is on the other side of the Central City Mall, so not too far away. King George SkyTrain Station is even closer, located on just the other side of King George Boulevard.
Music fans attending the festival are usually encouraged to carpool and use public parking at the King George Station or at the Scott Road SkyTrain Station, and then from there take the SkyTrain three stops to King George. For people dropping off passengers at the site, they can do so along the west side of King George Boulevard.
Bikes aren’t normally allowed inside the festival venue, but there are bicycle racks and a supervised valet service outside on a first-come, first-served basis (or at least there was in previous years).
TIP: Fans are encouraged to arrive early to find a parking spot for their car or bike. Central City Mall is open Saturdays until 7:00 pm, and those attending the festival can shop beforehand, grab a bite to eat, or have a pre-concert beverage.
