Granville Island is where locals and tourists go for food and entertainment in Vancouver. Granville Island hosts a very large public market, art college, various boat shops, fashion boutiques, gift shops, restaurants, theaters, galleries, and a hotel. Oh, did I mention the Old Granville Island brewery? You should try their Pale Ale when in town; it is very good and goes well with either seafood or Greek food. For the 2009 Canada Day Celebration they featured local jazz bands. The Island has its own amphitheater for entertainers and they setup up several other stages for featured jazz bands for the Canada Day Celebration. However, do not try to take a car there, even though there is parking on the island. Either walk, ride a bike, take a water ferry or public transportation to the Island because traffic is terrible and pedestrians have no consideration for people in cars. It can take hours to get on, around, or off the island by car.
