SUMMARY:Celebrate Mother’s Day at Metropolis at Metrotown
DESCRIPTION:This Mother’s Day\, Metropolis at Metrotown invites moms\, mom figures\, and their families to discover the joys of Mother Nature! The Met’s annual “We Love Moms & Mother Nature” returns with an adventurous twist from April 18 to May 19\, 2025. From an indoor “glampsite” to the beloved Mother’s Day party in the Grand Court\, here are four ways you and your loved ones can join in the action at BC’s largest shopping centre. \nFrom April 18 until May 19\, go glamping – no preparation required. The heart of the Met’s Mother’s Day festivities is the Grand Court\, which will be transformed into an epic indoor glampsite. Supported by Decathlon – whose 38\,000-square-foot flagship store opened at the Met on April 27\, 2024\, the site encompasses a tropical tiki bar; a tented grassland bedroom; a camp-inspired kitchen; and a beachside games room. There’s also a faux campfire with s’mores on select weekends (April 26 & May 3)\, as well as spot-the-wildlife-themed games for both kids and adults. The glamping site will be closed on April 30 and May 10. \nFrom April 18 until May 19\, step into nature… indoors. Crafted by the creative minds at local design studio Lazy Wizard\, the Grand Court’s enchanting glampsite features a mountains-and-forest tableau with a whimsical hot air balloon suspended above. Enter through an inflatable tree and wander amid light-festooned trees and a charming campground. \nOn May 10 from 12 – 2pm\, encourage Mom to let loose at a party in her honour. Mothers work hard every day of the year – on Saturday\, May 10\, they can play! Kick off your Mother’s Day celebrations a day early at the Met’s ticketed bash\, which invites guests of all ages to a midday fête with music\, cocktails and wine\, and light canapes. Amusements include DIY s’mores\, woodland photo opportunities\, craftmaking\, and a door prize. Plus\, each adult will receive a gift bag to take home (complete with a Met $20 gift card). Tickets cost $40 per adult and $5 for kids aged 5-15 years; kids 4 and under are free. Proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to Burnaby Family Life’s Women Driving Their Future program. Tickets are available online. \nStarting April 24\, shop for a $20 reward. Ahead of Mother’s Day\, visitors to the Met who spend $200 (before taxes) will get a $20 reward card – the perfect incentive to splash out on a memorable Mother’s Day gift! Plus\, the Met will donate $5 for each redemption (up to $5\,000) to the Burnaby Fire Department. Rewards are available until sold out! \nThe shopping centre is open Monday to Saturday\, 10am – 9pm\, and Sunday\, 11am – 7pm.
