PHOTOS: #VanKiss Mistletoe heats up the streets in Vancouver

The Vancouver holiday tradition where mysterious mistletoe is hung around the city, prompting people to share a smooch and take a picture, is back.

#VanKiss Mistletoe has made its debut for the 2015 Christmas season, and as always, Vancourites love the gesture. This year there are more locations than ever with 40 sign posts being put up across Vancouver.

Where have you found a #VanKiss mistletoe?

Check out these photos of couples, young and old, under the mistletoe:

After an intense 36 hours (packing and storing life and dealing with health issues) we still wanted to kiss. That’s a win in our books 🙂 May not be the case without the help received from a few fabulous friends. #VanKiss #projectfulltimefamily

Tis the season!! Passing by the #VanKiss Mistletoe was the perfect opportunity… @hataasan found it rather humorous that a passerby wanted to take our picture. As she was getting ready to take the picture she says “so you gonna kiss her passionately?!?” This was the cute result… #Yaletown #kissunderthemistletoe #mistletoe #ChristmasCheer A photo posted by John Hwang (@chrisqchance) on Nov 28, 2015 at 5:01am PST
