BC Recreation and Parks Association’s (BCRPA) flagship conference brings together 400+ recreation and parks professionals who are building healthier and more vibrant communities. 

Registration is now open for BCRPA Symposium: Healthier, Together, happening April 28 to May 1 at the historic Fairmont Hotel Vancouver. Early bird rates are available until March 26. 

It’s your chance to step away from day-to-day work, learn alongside peers, and be part of meaningful conversations.

What to expect:

• Four days of thought-provoking sessions on climate change, community planning and engagement, reconciliation with a choice of two local guided tours on the final day
• Time to connect and unwind, with social events and games built into the program
• BC's largest recreation and parks tradeshow, featuring new ideas, tools, solutions, and interactive experiences
• "Together We Shine” Dine & Dance Gala, a costume party worth the hype

Session streams focus on active living, inclusion and access, connecting people and nature, supportive environments, and recreation capacity.

This event is eligible for PIBC CPL units.
