Canada Day at Britannia Mine Museum

Celebrate Canada Day at Britannia Mine Museum – Live Music, Family Fun & Mining History!

Head to the Britannia Mine Museum on Tuesday, July 1st for an unforgettable Canada Day celebration at Britannia Mine Museum, where history meets festive fun! Spend the day enjoying live music, interactive games, and exciting activities for all ages — all set against the stunning backdrop of the historic Mill No. 3 along the scenic Sea to Sky corridor.

Live Folk-Rock Music by Coldwater Road

Soak in the sounds of Coldwater Road, a Vancouver-based folk-rock duo known for their storytelling and toe-tapping tunes. They'll be performing three 30-minute live sets between 12:00 PM and 2:30 PM outdoors, right in front of our landmark Mill No. 3 building — a National Historic Site that once processed ore for one of Canada’s most important copper mines.

Classic Outdoor Games & Maypole Dancing

Get into the festive spirit with classic games like Cornhole, Ring Toss, and more. Families will love taking part in the traditional Maypole dance, a cheerful activity that brings a nostalgic charm to the day. Whether you're five or ninety-five, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

Admission Includes Underground Tour & BOOM! Show

Your Canada Day admission includes access to their immersive Underground Tour, where you can experience what it was like to be a miner working deep inside the mountain. Plus, don’t miss the BOOM! show, the award-winning live-action special effects experience that brings the story of Mill No. 3 to life with lights, sound, and historical storytelling.
