Summer Movie Matinee – Paddington Bear
- What: Looking for something to do with the whole family? Head down to the West Vancouver Memorial Library for their summer movie matinee. Today’s movie is Paddington Bear, a movie about an Peruvian bear’s adventures in England, and it’s way funnier and more entertaining than you would expect.
- Where: West Vancouver Memorial Library – 1950 Marine Drive, West Vancouver
- When: Thursday, July 30; 2:30 p.m.
Theory of a Deadman at the Hard Rock Casino
- What: That’s right, Theory of a Deadman is still kicking. Take this opportunity to check out everyone’s older brother’s favourite band at the Hard Rock Casino. It’ll be like middle school/high school/college all over again.
- Where: Hard Rock Casino Vancouver – 2080 United Boulevard, Coquitlam
- When: Thursday, July 30; 8 p.m.
Imagine Dragons at the Rogers Arena
- What: Looking for something a little more modern? Imagine Dragons comes to Rogers Arena, bringing the restless music festival hordes with them. There’s no tent city, but it’ll be so dark you won’t even notice.
- Where: Rogers Arena – 800 Griffiths Way, Vancouver
- When: Thursday, July 30; 7:30 p.m.
Jokes Please! – Weird Voicemail Edition
- What: One of Vancouver’s most fun independent shows, Jokes Please! brings local professional and amateur stand-up comedians, and a few special guests, together for your entertainment. With hosts Ivan Decker, Ross Dauk, and Andy Kallstrom keeping things moving and fun, this is a show you shouldn’t miss.
- Where: The Little Mountain Gallery – 195 East 26th Avenue, Vancouver
- When: Thursday, July 30; 8 p.m.
Mad Max: Fury Road
- What: The hottest summer on record can only be honoured one way: a movie about the sun-blasted hellscape that is future Australia. Gasoline, leather, mutated rock monsters, ill-advised body modifications; it is a future as exciting as it is terrifying.
- Where: The Rio Theatre – 1660 East Broadway Street, Vancouver
- When: Thursday, July 30; 6:45 p.m.
