Next Wednesday, Vancouver's Fair at the PNE is opening its gates at a discounted rate for all avid readers.
With a partnership between the annual summer fair, Raise a Reader, Tim Hortons and Public Library InterLINK, any fair-goer presenting a B.C. library card will be able to enter for $6, discounted from the regular fare of $15.
“InterLINK and its member libraries are thrilled to participate in the second Library Day at the Fair at the PNE. Like the fair, our public libraries are a favourite place for families to visit, and an essential summer activity in B.C.,” said Michael Burris, Public Library InterLINK executive director in a press release.
At the fair, a “library zone” will offer free activities hosted by staff from various B.C. libraries.
“The library zone at the fair is full of fun activities that families can expect when they visit their local library,” Burris said. “There will be something for every age.”
For those who don’t have a library card yet, visit any Richmond Public Library branch to sign up for free. One card per person must be shown and the PNE is free for children under the age of 13.
The 2018 PNE runs from Aug. 18 to Sept. 3.
