Vv Magazine’s Danica Jeffery gets you the first sneak peek of Canada’s largest food and drink festival…
We know we’ve barely rolled into December and here we are thinking about the New Year already. But with good reason — it relates to one of our favourite (and tastiest) annual events: Dine Out Vancouver Festival 2015. The feasting fete is set to take over the town from January 16 to February 1.

Produced by Tourism Vancouver, Dine Out Vancouver is Canada’s largest food and drink festival and is always a huge hit. It makes dining out post-holiday hangover easier on the budget.
With 264 restaurants (and counting) already signed up to participate in this year’s festival, they’ve already broken a record. The full Dine Out Vancouver list will officially be made public as of January 7, so until then we’ll leave you with some sweet sounding festival details to tide you over.
This year, DOVF is set to launch their new Club Amuse-bouche, offering guests a VIP experience. Select events are offering a limited selection of premium tickets, which include even more options to tempt your tastebuds — with plenty of perks in the works. Think access to VIP cocktail receptions, priority event access, special gifts, opportunities to meet chefs, and more.

The Grand Tasting On Granville Island is back and guaranteed to sell out – it’s just that popular. This grand gala opening party offers an exclusive after-hours opportunity to taste the best of Granville Island, the Wines of British Columbia, and Canadian Dairy cheese within the unique Public Market atmosphere. You’ll also feast on the finest offerings, courtesy of Granville Island’s many restaurants and culinary teams.
Another new event to DOVF is the International Chef Exchange, taking place on January 18. The exchange is a collaboration of two great food and drink festivals and is a unique opportunity for guests to feast on delicious meals hosted by two of Vancouver’s best vegetarian restaurants: the award-winning, UK-based Terre à Terre from Brighton, and Vancouver’s The Parker.
