What we’re about
Living Streets promotes walking to enrich and experience public space, creating community ties, as a feasible way of transportation, and as a catalyst for physical and mental health. Living Streets is a program that identifies opportunities for education and public engagement in the pedestrian realm.
Everyone is welcome.
Our events are to promote walking all year round and moving without relying on driving. We care about Active Transportation connecting communities in Metro Vancouver.
We are committed to maintaining a welcoming, safe, and respectful environment for all members of our community. Harassment, bullying, or any form of inappropriate behavior will not be tolerated.
We reserve the right to remove any member who engages in such conduct, ensuring that our walking group remains a positive space for everyone. If you experience or witness any concerning behavior, please report it to the group organizers.
Thank you for helping us create an enjoyable and inclusive community!

- 🚶Seawall Stroll to BEST Move🎊Husain Rahim Plaza , Vancouver, BC
Each Living Streets walk is accessible and inclusive, welcoming people of all ages and abilities. The August 24th BEST Move edition offers a flat, scenic route with access to benches and public washroom facilities along the way.
We’ll begin at Husain Rahim Plaza, located beside the Spyglass Water Taxi stop, and follow the False Creek Seawall toward David Lam Park, where the BEST Move awaits! This route is a great way to experience walkable, people-first infrastructure, while connecting with others and soaking in the downtown waterfront views. Whether you're coming solo or with friends, it's a relaxed, welcoming way to explore the city on foot.
The event ends at David Lam Park, where you're invited to stay and enjoy the BEST Booth fundraising activities, Beer Garden, Food Trucks, Cascade Ride Finish Line, Bike Pageant, and more as part of the BEST Move celebration. Details here.
