Greater Vancouver has a jam-packed event schedule this weekend, with the world’s largest Vaisakhi parade happening in Surrey on Saturday, along with the annual 4/20 gathering at Sunset Beach the same day.
After that, the Vancouver Sun Run closes major roads around the city for the 10-kilometre race on Sunday.
