Family Fun Night at Sea to Sky Gondola:A Wednesday Evening Adventure for Families

Looking for an easy summer evening activity with the kids in Squamish? Family Fun Night at Sea to Sky Gondola runs every Wednesday evening throughout the summer with lawn games, scavenger hunts, mountain views, and a Kids Eat Free offer at Backyard Burgers.

It is simple in the best possible way: ride the gondola up, let the kids run around, grab dinner, play a few games, and enjoy a slower summer evening above Howe Sound.

Our first Family Fun Night of the season was a huge success. Dozens of local and visiting families mingled in the sun, played lawn games, explored the Summit, and enjoyed the evening together. It is a favourite with Sea to Sky Gondola Members, and it is a wonderful option for visiting families too.

Quick Answer: What Is Family Fun Night?

Family Fun Night is a weekly summer event at Sea to Sky Gondola designed for families looking for an easy, playful evening outdoors.

It runs every Wednesday from 4 PM to 8 PM at Backyard Plaza at the Summit. Families can enjoy lawn games, scavenger hunts, a guided family hike, food, and plenty of space to relax and explore.

Non-Members can purchase limited 40% off Family Fun Night lift tickets online. Sea to Sky Gondola Members can attend with their Membership, no additional ticket is required.

What Can Families Do at Family Fun Night?

Families can play lawn games, join a scavenger hunt, explore the Summit, and take part in a guided family hike on Alpine Alley at 6 PM.

At Backyard Plaza, you will find games like Giant Checkers, Ladder Golf, Corn Hole, and other rotating favourites. The Summit Scavenger Hunt is a fun way for kids to explore Spirit Trail, solve clues, and discover a few sweet surprises along the way.

For parents, it is a low-effort evening with high reward: fresh air, mountain views, happy kids, and no complicated plan required.

Do Kids Eat Free?

Yes. During Family Fun Night, kids eat free with every adult meal at Backyard Burgers.

That means dinner is already part of the plan. Backyard Burgers is the new Summit spot for burgers, fries, and easy family meals.

A little secret: Chef Stevie and Chef Vinnie have their sights set on making the best burger in Squamish this year. I like it spicy, so my pick is The Sea to Spice burger. Come up on a Wednesday evening and see what all the fuss is about.

Do You Need to Be a Member?

No. Everyone is welcome at Family Fun Night.

Sea to Sky Gondola Members can attend with their Membership, and non-Members can purchase limited 40% off Family Fun Night lift tickets online.

That makes it a great option whether you are a local family looking for a new Wednesday tradition, a visiting family planning a Squamish evening, or someone who has been meaning to come up to the Summit and needed a good reason.

Is Family Fun Night Worth It?

Yes, especially if you are looking for an easy outdoor activity that works for both kids and parents.

Family Fun Night gives families a reason to get outside midweek, enjoy dinner at the Summit, play together, and make the most of long summer evenings. From what we saw at the first event of the season, families understood the assignment: kids played, parents chatted, the games stayed busy, and the whole evening had that relaxed summer feeling we were hoping for.

I think this one is going to become a favourite.
