The Celebration Pavilion is a stunning setting, located in the heart of Queen Elizabeth park, at the highest point in the city of Vancouver, British Columbia. The Pavilion is an intimate space with a modern design, flooded by natural light, that hosts wedding ceremonies, receptions and other special events.
Facilities & Capacity
The Celebration Pavilion can accommodate a maximum of 100 people for a ceremony, 48 for a seated reception or 65 for a standing cocktail reception. The back walls of the Pavilion open up to a beautiful patio & garden area, creating an enchanting ceremony backdrop. This unique garden setting is wheelchair accessible. The venue features radiant heated floors for events taking place in cooler seasons. Near the venue, you will find a private washroom for guests and a wedding suite, for those last-minute touch-ups. Pay parking is available throughout the park and is operated by EasyPark.
Services Offered
The rental rates for the Celebration Pavilion differ depending on whether you are holding your wedding ceremony on a weekday or weekend. Weekend rates apply for Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Stat Holidays.
As the logistics of a reception (this includes any event serving food and/or beverage) are much more complex than a ceremony only booking, may we please schedule a phone call to discuss in more detail? The rentals office hours are Monday to Friday, between 9am and 4pm.
Included in your rental is 2 hours of exclusive use of the venue, the services of a liaison staff member, the use of 80 silver chiavari chairs in a standard lecture style setup, a signing table with linen, a sound system with aux input, a handheld or lapel microphone(s), your choice of either a red or black carpeted aisle runner and silk floral decors of either blush/lavender/white or red/green.
A wedding rehearsal can be booked Monday to Thursdays between 9am and 3pm, depending on staff availability. Bookings outside of these standard hours or days will incur an additional hourly fee. Please note that all dates and times are subject to change due to last-minute bookings. Availability is not guaranteed, and all tentative holds are confirmed only two weeks prior to the scheduled date.
Please click here to check out our current 2025 rental brochure. We are currently accepting booking requests for 2026, however, the 2026 rental rates and weekday operating hours have yet to be established. This may not be confirmed until early January 2026.
Bookings that provide less than 2-weeks notice are currently charged an additional last-minute booking fee of $160 plus GST.
In-person viewings with a member of the rentals department are limited and by appointment only. If you would like to visit the facility in person yourself, you are more than welcome to; the front doors are windows, and you can see the space from the outside. However, if there is an event taking place, we ask that you please respect their privacy and come back another time. We are more than happy to go over any questions that you may have after your visit via email. If you cannot make it here in person, please experience a virtual tour and photo album to visit the space virtually.
