Wreck Beach International Shoreline Clean-up and Debris Inventory scheduled to September 27th 2020 has been cancelled.
The ceremony scheduled for International World Rivers Day has also been cancelled due to the unavailability of the organizer due to personal tragedy.
Thanks to all of you who were prepared to help.

We could not organize any events due to COVID-19 pandemic this year.
But, we are doing beach clean up since it was the busiest season we have never experienced.
It is going to be “Sunday” this year!
We all supply what we need. All we want is your body!
Thank you and see you on the beach!

You are invited to attend the annual Kokoro Dance Wreck Beach Butoh performances. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, we had to cancel our annual 2-week Wreck Beach Butoh performance workshop and, instead, will be celebrating our 26th year of performances by performing this year’s edition as a duet by Barbara Bourget and Jay Hirabayashi. Performances will take place on
Tuesday, July 21st at 12:30 pm and Wednesday, July 22nd at 1:10 pm.
(foot of the #4 Trail at Wreck Beach
…just west of the UBC Museum of Anthropology). Please note that paid parking is available at the Rose Garden Parkade (near the UBC Chan Centre) and that it takes 10 minutes or more to walk to the foot of the #4 Trail.
Performances take place rain or shine. No photography or video allowed. Donations are gratefully accepted and clothing is optional. Because of COVID-19 safety concerns, we will not be accepting donations at the performances. If you wish to support the continuation of our annual Wreck Beach Butoh performances, you can donate here.
If you are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms such as fever, chills, new or worsening cough, shortness of breath, new muscle aches or headache, and sore throat, please stay home to protect others. Please remember to practice social distancing of 2 meters from others when watching the performances. Please watch this GVRD Parks video below regarding physical distancing for your safety.
Kokoro Dance’s Wreck Beach Butoh performances are performed with set, costumes, and lighting provided by Mother Nature. Each year, we create a new dance that embraces the sand, water, and air at this beautiful location with its views of the Howe Sound to the west, mountains to the north, and the skyline of the city to the east. We promise a unique performance experience unlike any other in the world.
Sincerely,

Due to the City of Vancouver’s closure of pool facilities for the time being, we regret to have to inform you that there will be no NIFTY or Wreck Beach Swim Club pool events until further notice.
Please check back to the NIFTY at niftynude.org and to the WBPS Website at WreckBeach.org to see updates on the next scheduled NIFTY and WBPS pool events.
We plan to have pool events again as soon as possible.
Your safety during these hard times remains our highest priority so your understanding is greatly appreciated.

Vancouver Mayor Kenndy Stewart said in a statement Sunday, March 15, that all Vancouver “hot tubs and saunas are completely closed.”
Since the WBPS Swim Club knows that people who attend our WB Spa/Pool Club events at Lord Byng Pool particularly enjoy the warmth and socializing that the sauna and hot tub facilitate, we regrettablymust cancel our March 21st WB Spa/Pool Club event originally scheduled for March 21.
As soon as we can provide a pool event with all the amenities that our guests love to participate in, we will announce it on Facebook , in the Wreck Beach Spa/Pool Club Group and on our website at wreckbeach.org.
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to seeing everyone at Lord Byng Pool again soon. Please see the following link for a more detailed explanation:
