Port Moody’s Holiday Cheer at the Pier Christmas Event

Holiday Cheer at the Pier

Holiday Cheer at the Pier is a Christmas-themed community event with Santa and family-friendly activities at Port Moody’s Rocky Point Park on November 25th.

It’s not a huge event, but it’s nice for local young families and people in the community.

 

Holiday Cheer at the Pier in Port Moody

Holiday Cheer at the Pier takes place on a Saturday during the Christmas season each year. The event happens at the Rocky Point Pier and Boat Launch (in the 2800 block of Murray Street) at Rocky Point Park.

In 2023, Holiday Cheer at the Pier ran from 6:00 pm until 8:00 pm on Saturday, November 25th. The event is free to attend and can attract over 1000 people.

The city’s Christmas celebrations include photo opportunities with Santa Claus, craft activities and roaming entertainment. Kids can write letters to Santa and folks can also learn about the Port of Vancouver.

Another highlight of Holiday Cheer at the Pier is the Christmas illuminations. The lights along the pier turn on for the season during the event. They can be admired after 6:15 pm. This year’s family-friendly event also features an artisan pocket market and a scavenger hunt. Every who wanted go a complimentary cookie (while supplies lasted). Hot chocolate was available by donation as well.

Although Holiday Cheer at the Pier is free to attend, donations of unwrapped toys for the Port Moody Fire-Rescue’s Toy Drive are greatly appreciated. Toys donated at the event go to needy families through SHARE Family & Community Services.
