The Beer Garden at Boundary Bay is a kid-friendly, dog-friendly hangout space, featuring a playground, live music and craft beer. It’s the perfect spot for summer fun and relaxation. This year, the beer garden will feature an expanded BBQ menu, featuring a variety of burgers, sausages, sandwiches and sides. Hot fried chicken and smoked brisket sandwiches are newly available, along with mole yam fries, a grilled veggie platter and more. The weekly lineup now features Southern Fried Sundays with DJ Yogoman. Beer garden patrons can end their weekends right with BBQ food specials that have a southern flair. The featured specials are hush puppies, popcorn shrimp and potato salad. The night will also feature soulful southern tunes on vinyl spun by DJ Yogoman. Boundary Bay is proud to announce the 4th annual season of BIFT, a family-friendly improv comedy event featuring comedians from The Upfront Theater. Every Tuesday starting at 6 pm, the community can enjoy comedy and beer in the garden. The cover for this event is $5. Old favorites will return, including Irish & Folk Mondays, Stringband Thursdays, and Fryday Fish Fry. Starting on July 11 a new event, Aftersounds presented by Metanoia Collective brings the music festival atmosphere to The Beer Garden after Downtown Sounds. Aftersounds is a multidimensional event featuring visuals and music from local artists and musicians.
