Fall Fun at Metropolis at Metrotown

For Immediate Release

Experience the magic of the season at B.C.’s largest shopping centre

Burnaby, BC (September 19, 2023): From comforting flavours and cozy outfits to memorable outings, fall is filled with charm. From now through October 31, Metropolis at Metrotown – B.C.’s largest shopping centre – welcomes locals and visitors alike to embrace all that the season has to offer through unparalleled shopping, festive displays, exciting contests and more.

Here are 10 ways to get into fall spirits at Metropolis at Metrotown this season:

Satisfy your craving for fall flavours. Warm up with a hand-crafted pumpkin spice latte made with signature espresso and spiced pumpkin purée at Blenz Coffee. Or, for something more decadent, try Cupcakes’ apple spice cupcake, made with cinnamon maple butter and filled with apple jam.
Boost your beauty and wellness routine. Cooler weather calls for extra self-care and pampering! Treat yourself to a limited-edition pumpkin vanilla skincare set at The Body Shop. And, for good measure, pick-up Sage’s Fireside Chai soothing diffuser blend to create the perfect fall ambiance at home.
Refresh your wardrobe. With over 330 stores, you’ll have plenty of choice as you search for new pieces to round out your fall wardrobe. Find soft knits, statement jackets and luxurious scarves to bundle up in at stores like Oak + Fort, Uniqlo, Weekend by Max Mara and Coach.
Transform your home for the season. Embrace comforting evenings at home with fall-inspired décor accents and more. Whether you’re looking for pillows or throws in rich seasonal hues or kitchen tools to test new recipes, you’re sure to find what you need for brisker days ahead.
Get moving. As the days become shorter, bring your exercise routine indoors with free Zumba and cardio classes offered through Fitness at the MET. Classes run until October 26, and drop-ins are welcome.
Marvel at magical displays. Be inspired by festive fall displays – including a one-of-a-kind piece by local twig artist, The Wizards Maker – located in the Grand Court, with the live installation running now through September 22. Fall displays will remain until October 31.
Enter our fall giveaway. From October 2-8, follow @metropolisatmet on Instagram and share a snap of a fall display, tag a friend, and comment about your favourite fall happening at the centre. One lucky winner will receive a $100 gift card to use at select retailers.
Attend a pumpkin carving show. Watch a featured artist showcase their impressive pumpkin carving skills with a live demo on October 14 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Grand Court.
Watch a pie-eating contest. Visit the Grand Court on October 21 to watch a live pie-eating contest sponsored by The Pie Hole, one of the Lower Mainland’s best pie shops. The Pie Hole will also be hosting a pop-up, where visitors can purchase fresh, handmade pies to-go.
Get into Halloween spirits. Visitors of all ages can celebrate Halloween at Metropolis at Metrotown through a range of activities and experiences, including a balloon twister and mascot on October 31 from 2–6 p.m., or go trick-or-treating at select retailers throughout the day.
