"Playland Nights" to run every Friday this July, from 7 p.m. to midnight

VANCOUVER (NEWS 1130) – One of Vancouver’s most kid-friendly entertainment venues is trying out a whole new atmosphere this summer.

Every Friday throughout July, Playland will host adults-only evenings, complete with craft beer, wine, and Playland-themed cocktails like a candy floss martini.

All the Playland staples will be sticking around, including the fried food, midway games and rides.

The grounds will be licensed, so anyone of legal drinking age can enjoy an alcoholic beverage anywhere onsite instead of being confined to a beer garden.

“We strive to continue to offer our guests new and exciting ways to enjoy Playland and we are sure these 19+ nights will be a huge success,” says Mike McDaniel, President and CEO of the Pacific National Exhibition.

“Playland Nights” runs from 7 p.m. to midnight starting July 7th.

Tickets are $29 at the gate, and $26 in advance. Admission includes unlimited access to over 25 rides and attractions.
