VMF Winter Arts 2025
The Winter Arts Festival 2025 is an interactive festival transforming downtown Vancouver into an open-air gallery and celebration of art, lights, and entertainment. Free to attend except for 19+ events, everyone is invited downtown to enjoy new works of temporary public art popping up in unexpected places.
The Winter Arts Festival spotlights the fusion of light, language and technology in captivating light-based public art. In the darkest season, light serves as a vital form of communication, conveying warnings and radiating warmth while creating spaces for reflection and storytelling.

The artworks will utilise technology and light and will include 3D art, interactive displays, projections, digital and augmented reality, laser animations, and many other kinds of installations that will bring light and warmth during one of the darkest times of year. Curation will be highlighting works by Lekwungen, Musqueam, Squamish, Tsleil-Waututh, Black and Asian artists across the festival footprint.
