Join us for Car Free Day in Burnaby! We’re partnering with TransLink on an exciting new event that encourages everyone to leave their cars at home, connect with each other and explore different ways of getting around.

Trees cover almost a third of our city, from the forests of Burnaby Mountain and Central Park to those lining our neighbourhood streets. Together, they form an urban canopy that is pivotal to Burnaby’s identity and to the quality of life our residents enjoy.

Burnaby resident Ken Shinozaki’s record-breaking act of generosity is helping to launch a new City of Burnaby program designed to ensure Burnaby’s parks and green spaces continue to grow for generations to come.

It is important for residents to know that this upgrade was part of a larger 25-year plan for Burnaby's parks, shaped by extensive feedback from the community. Residents told us what they wanted, and this plan provides a roadmap to meet those needs today while ensuring our park system can keep apace as Burnaby grows and faces new challenges.

The visit marked the announcement of two major projects being planned by the Ismaili community in Burnaby: Generations Burnaby, a mixed-use seniors and community care campus, and the Burnaby Lake multipurpose centre (Pavilion).

Construction plays a vital foundational role in shaping our region—delivering the housing, commercial and industrial infrastructure we need while supporting economic growth, creating jobs and building strong, resilient communities.

The City of Burnaby opens registrations for the fall season starting August 10. To prepare for registration, view the Fall Activity Guide and add your favourite activities to your Wish List in WebReg.

To suggest homelessness in our city and the problems associated with it can be solved overnight is not being realistic or understanding of the complex legal, practical and human challenges involved.
