Vancouver's largest water fight returns to Stanley Park next weekend

Pull out those Super Soakers and stock up on water balloons — the Vancouver Waterfight is coming back for another year.

The biggest, wettest water fight to ever hit Vancouver is making its return to Stanley Park on Saturday, August 10, 2019.

• Don’t do anything stupid, and if you see others being stupid, tell them to knock it off
• Dress for the occasion – wear a bathing suit
• Don’t terrorize the public, only aim for those involved in the event
• Don’t bring cameras unless you’re prepared for them to get wet
• Don’t take this too seriously
• Don’t litter
• Don’t bring water pistols that look like real guns
• Try not to use more water than you need
• No nudity
• No dyed water
