Whether you're looking for a quiet spot to read, a picturesque setting for a picnic, or a reflective space to appreciate history, Victory Square Park is a delightful choice.
Every November 11 from 10 am to noon, an extensive ceremony is held to honour those that have served in Canada's military. While it is broadcast locally, large numbers of the public attend in person.
At other times of the year, there are assorted community events.

Victory Square occupies a small triangle of land where a noble granite cenotaph stands as a memorial to Vancouverites who lost their lives in the First World War.

A nice, small park. Although it felt kinda depressing there. Maybe it's because of the weather or there weren't many people. Nevertheless, a nice, quiet spot to spend some time alone
I love walking through this beautiful park. Lovely scenery from just about any direction. Oh if you need the washroom, thankfully there is some there. Alot of interesting characters there too, and cute pets. If you are looking for a beautiful place to have your lunch break or just to come and hang out this is the park providing you are near by.
Like many places in the city you should be cautious but a little moreso in this area. Bad people with bad dogs - drug use and the disregarded paraphernalia - it does receive daily cleaning and has calm moments and of course the yearly remeberance day gathering
I was here for Remembrance day 2023! Lest we forget! Our heroes have a monument here! Love the place. Never forget who are as Canadian's!!! A tribute to our Men, Women and dogs who served in our military!
