IMGL Spring 2025 Conference

Tap & Barrel Bridges on Granville Island – Aquabus charter to/from Granville Island, departing from Plaza of Nations Pier (a 5 minute walk from hotel)

The Opening Reception will take place at Tap & Barrel Bridges on Granville Island, a venue offering a relaxed atmosphere with stunning waterfront views. Attendees can enjoy the charm of the harbor, indulge in a variety of local craft beverages, and take in breathtaking views of the city skyline, nearby marinas, and the dynamic energy of False Creek. One of the highlights of this experience is Vancouver’s unique Aquabus system, which adds an element of exploration and fun to the evening. These colorful, small ferries provide scenic travel across the water, offering panoramic views and a unique perspective of the city’s bustling waterfront.

Aquabus transportation will depart from Plaza of Nations Pier starting at 6:00 pm, which is just a 5 minute walk from the hotel.

The last departure window is at 8:45 pm. Attendees can show their lanyard to an Aquabus person for a complimentary pass, if they want to leave early and join regular traffic back to Plaza. Anyone who misses that departure window from Granville will need to find alternate transportation from the venue back to their hotel.

For those that miss the 6:00 pm pickup, they can also join regular traffic to Granville.
