Vancouver Mural Festival: Five things to know

In a way, Vancouver Mural Festival never really ends. The public art installations set to be unveiled next week are permanent, meaning you’ll be able to enjoy them long after the festival winds to a close.
But in another way, the Vancouver Mural Festival ends six days after it begins, because it’s a six-day festival. And while the memories and murals are sure to last much longer than that, the tours, parties and other can’t-miss events will all take place between Aug. 6 and 11&
