Lower Mainland Corn Mazes
Corn mazes are offered by select local farms in Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley in late summer and early autumn. They are great attractions that have activities for folks of all ages. Most also have pumpkin patches.
Below we list some of the top venues to have fun getting lost in a maze within the Lower Mainland. Check them out!
(Note: Details are subject to change and some venues may be weather-dependent. See official venue websites for exact information.)
Chilliwack Corn Mazes
Chilliwack has a couple of great venues for corn mazes. Both of these also offer a pumpkin patch and other fall activities.
Peteys Pumpkin Patch at Fantasy Farms
Fantasy Farms is home to Peteys Pumpkin Patch which usually features more than one different corn maze for visitors to choose from. In previous years the farm offered a smaller maze for younger guests and a few longer, more complicated mazes for older folks or children with parents.
There are typically two corn mazes. There is a small one for kids at the farm’s Peteys Pumpkin Patch event. The farm also has a larger maze, but it’s used for Reapers Maze of Terror (which is a serious haunted Halloween attraction each year).
General admission to Peteys Pumpkin Patch costs $14, or $50 for a family of four in 2024. This includes access to the Mini Maze, animal area and other family-friendly activities.
This year the place is open from 1:00 pm until 5:00 pm on most weekdays and between 10:00 am and 5:00 pm on weekends and holidays.
Check out our article about Fantasy Farms or visit the Peteys Pumpkin Patch website for more information.
Reapers Maze of Terror at Fantasy Farms
In addition to its kid-friendly Peteys Pumpkin Patch, Fantasy Farms is also home to Reapers Maze of Terror which is a serious haunted attraction. Whereas the corn maze at Peteys Pumpkin Patch is ideal for small children, Reapers is a corn maze for older youth and adults. It’s pretty scary!
If you like haunted houses and seriously scary corn mazes, you would love Reapers. It’s worth the drive out to see! This year it runs Wednesdays to Sundays from September 29th until the 31st.
Chilliwack Corn Maze
The 12-acre Chilliwack Corn Maze features a new theme every year. The 2022 design included both a T-Rex and a massive chicken. Last year the maze had a special 25th anniversary design. In 2024 the design is Luke Bryan, the famous country musician. The maze was made in partnership with 93.7 JR Country, a local country radio station.
The Chilliwack Corn Maze’s address is 41905 West Yale Road. It’s a little ways off the Trans-Canada Highway just past the farm where the Chilliwack Tulip Festival takes place in the spring and where the Chilliwack Sunflower Festival happens in the summer and early fall.
This year the maze operates from August 1st until the end of October. On its opening weekend, there’s also the Chilliwack Corn Festival at the same farm. The maze remains open every day in October, and from Wednesday to Sunday in August and September. Admission to the Chilliwack Corn Maze in 2024 is $16 when buying tickets online. Tickets bought at the gate are a couple dollars more.
See our article about the Chilliwack Corn Maze for more details.
Corn Mazes in Abbotsford
Popular corn mazes in Abbotsford include ones offered by Maan Farms and Taves Family Farm.
Maan Farms
Maan Farms offers one of the scariest corn mazes in Canada. Set on over five acres, the haunted maze features live actors, gory displays and frightening scenes. This maze is intended for folks over the age of 10. However, Maan Farms also offers a fun corn maze for kids too.
About the Mazes
Maan Farms’ address is 790 McKenzie Road. It’s a short drive from the Abbotsford Costco and about 10 minutes east of the Abbotsford International Airport.
This year Maan Farms has three Haunted Attractions, including its Haunted Corn Maze. The maze’s theme is Slaughterhouse, which is the same as it’s been for the last couple years. Maan Farms also has a separate Enchanted Corn Maze for younger kids and families.
In 2024, the kid-friendly regular corn maze is open from September 14th to November 3rd. Admission to the kid-friendly corn maze and children’s play areas costs about $18 on weekdays and $23 on weekends.

Taves Family Farm
Along with its pumpkin patch and other farm activities, Taves Family Farms & Applebarn is home to the Corn Quest Maze which is a good-sized maze that includes a fun mystery element.
Taves Applebarn’s address is 333 Gladwin Road which is just a five-minute drive from Maan Farms. (Note: Taves Family Farms is a series of farms owned by the same organization. The Applebarn is the farm location where the kid-friendly activities are hosted.)

Corn Mazes in Maple Ridge
In Maple Ridge folks can find corn mazes at Laity Farms. The farm has two locations – a North location and a South location.
Laity Pumpkin Patch (North and South)
Both North and South locations of Laity Farms offer corn mazes most years. The North location offers a smaller, one acre corn maze that is suitable for kids under the age of 7. The South location is intended for kids ages 4 and older, and is slightly larger at two acres.
The North location can be found at 21145-128th Avenue. Just across the street at 12725 Laity Street is the South location. It’s easy to get between the two locations – it’s about a two-minute drive or about the same to walk.
In 2024, the pumpkin patches are open from September 28th until Halloween (although the South location closes on the 30th). General admission costs $11 on most weekdays and $14 on weekends for each of the two pumpkin patches. Children under the age of three enter for free.
For more details click Laity Pumpkin Patches.
Surrey Corn Mazes
There’s a mini corn maze in Surrey at Hazelmere Pumpkin Patch. There used to also be the the Bose Corn Maze, which was much bigger, but it hasn’t happened since 2020.
Hazelmere Pumpkin Patch
Hazelmere Pumpkin Patch is located at 18507-20th Avenue which is in South Surrey about a 10-minute drive east of White Rock.
In addition to its pumpkin farm, Hazelmere also features a mini corn maze which is kid-friendly and designed for families with small children. The corn maze is a tiny one, but it is a corn maze (which is why we list it here).
Admission to the farm is $7.50 on weekdays and $10 on weekends in 2024 (beginning on September 21st). Kids under the age of 2 are admitted for free.
Admission includes access to the corn maze as well as the playground, animal areas and other attractions. Hazelmere Pumpkin Patch is open daily in October from 2:00 pm until 5:00 pm on weekdays and from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm on weekends. It’s also open the last two weekends of September.

Tips & Advice
Some tips to help you make the best of your corn maze experience are below:
TIP #1: Dress for the weather! Nobody has fun when it’s raining if they don’t have appropriate clothing. When visiting farms and other venues like them we recommend taking jackets and boots.
TIP #2: The venues listed above are farms, so expect to get a bit dirty. Bring appropriate clothes and/or supplies to clean off at the car after your visit.
TIP #3: Combine your trip to the above venues with a visit to other places too. Most of the corn maze locations have additional attractions such as pumpkin patches and other kids’ activities on-site, plus plants and gardening materials in some cases. For ideas on other things to do though, check out our articles about Langley, Maple Ridge, Surrey or the Fraser Valley (all depending on where you’re heading).
TIP #4: If you have younger children, go earlier in the day. It’s less scary before dark and you get the added bonus of smaller crowds.
TIP #5: When visiting farms in the Fraser Valley, don’t forget to fill up on gas. Fuel prices are often much lower in Chilliwack and Abbotsford compared to the rest of the Lower Mainland. The region is also famous for corn in the late summer and early autumn.
TIP #6: If you’re unsure if a venue is open (as a result of weather, etc.) always call ahead. Some venues’ opening hours are weather-dependent, but others are not. If in doubt, double-check before you go.
