Visit Whistler’s exceptional galleries to admire an array of artistic talent and perhaps find that unique piece for your home.
Shopping and Sightseeing in Vancouver
Shopping is a great way to explore Vancouver’s diverse neighbourhoods, and if you throw in a few of Vancouver’s “must-do” sightseeing attractions along the way, you have the perfect combination of retail therapy and cultural experiences. Here are just a few options that merge the two when visiting Vancouver.
Pemberton – Discover a Winter Playground
Nestled in the heart of the Coast Mountains, Pemberton is a small, unassuming town. Despite its sleepy ambiance, it is home to a vibrant community of outdoor enthusiasts.
Squamish
The Sea to Sky Corridor community of Squamish has long been considered a unique place — first for millennia by the Squamish (Skwxwú7mesh in their language) people who still call it home, then by the first Europeans who arrived in the late 1800s
Whisky-A-Go-Go
As winter rolls around, doesn’t the idea of gathering around the fire with a warming whisky cocktail sound perfect? Deliciously grown-up and made for slow sipping and long chats, whisky-based cocktails
Style & Indulgence
Find a sweater for every family member and so much more at Amos & Andes, The Whistler Sweater Shop; visit the Audain Art Museum Shop for art-inspired gifts, books, jewellery and more by B.C. artists.

Grill, Baby, Grill
No matter the season, the lure of fire-cooked food is always tempting. Maybe there’s something deep in our DNA — a siren song to our inner cave man or woman — that makes us drool when fire-grilled foods are on the menu. So, whether it’s meat, fish or even veggies on the grill, indulge that desire with a selection of flame-kissed favourites from these Whistler chefs.
Why’s It Called That?
Burnt Stew. Pig Alley. VD Chutes. Spanky’s Ladder. The list of odd and intriguing trail names on Whistler and Blackcomb mountains goes on and on.
