Thank you for your interest in booking at VanDusen Garden. Please review the information below to gain a better understanding of what is involved in renting our facilities for your event.
The new Visitor Centre is comprised of 3 rental halls. The BMO Great Hall and Peggy Gunn Woodland Hall A & B. These rooms can be rented as one large space or separated into 3 smaller rooms depending on the needs of your event. The Floral Hall Pavilion has 2 rooms which are located in our older building. The halls can be booked from 8:00 am-5:00 pm, 5:00pm - midnight, or for a full day from 8am to midnight (or until 1am on Saturdays only).
This unique garden setting is wheelchair accessible and has ample free parking. The Visitor Centre Halls look directly onto the garden with a stunning view of Livingston Lake. We also have a beautiful Garden Shop and Truffles Fine Foods cafe and catering located on site. Shaughnessy Restaurant is also a short walk away at the north west side of the parking lot.
All events require liability insurance with the “City of Vancouver and its Board of Parks & Recreation” named as additional insured. A special occasion license is also required for any events serving alcohol and can be purchased at any BC liquor store. If alcohol is being served at your event, $5 million in liability coverage is required. If you will not be serving alcohol $2 million in liability coverage is required.
A Reservation/Damage Deposit is required upon booking. A $10.00 SOCAN fee is charged if music is played. Renters are responsible for set up and take down and garbage is to be taken to the garbage bins located outside of the building. When using the Visitor Centre Halls, a 12% catering fee applies on the food and beverage costs. If you use Truffles Fine Foods who are located on site, the 12% does not apply. For any 2015 events, if you wish to keep the 2014 rates, you must pay in full by December 5, 2014.

Please Note: The security guard will not be able to answer questions regarding the rentals, so contact us after the viewing with any questions you may have.

However, it is always better to go with one of the rentals staff as they can explain how everything works. We need at least 3 working days’ notice to arrange that.
