This week, six special floral displays will be set up in downtown and the West End to celebrate Vancouver's vibrant LGBTQ+ community.
The displays are organized by Fleurs de Villes; it's the third time the floral displays have been set up for Pride. Floral installations will be set up at places like Jim Deva Plaza on Davie Street, the Bentall Centre, and Park Place.
People will be able to spot rainbow arches, disco balls, and mannequins dressed in floral garb.
