Kingsgate Mall

Tombolo's venue for this year is none other than the historic and iconic Kingsgate Mall in East Vancouver.

Taking over 2400sq ft of space, our walk-through "Make-Believe Mall" exhibit will showcase a plethora of children's artwork - all inspired by the wacky and wonderful wares they would showcase if they (kids) were in charge.

Whether it's visiting imaginary animals in the pet shop, or trying on outrageous outfits in the fashion boutique, visitors can interact with the whimsical world of our pretend mall.

(The event organizer is currently working on the RSVP site. It will be updated shortly. For more information, please contact the event organizer listed on this event page.)
