Celebrating our 90th Anniversary in bringing world class talent to the Kitsilano Community

About Kitsilano Showboat

Kitsilano Showboat operates as a community stage for amateur entertainment over the summer months at Kitsilano beach. It provides a venue for entertainers of all ages and all backgrounds from across the lower mainland. The entertainment is typically multiculturally based, representing the many roots of our society who may not otherwise have such an opportunity to perform in front of a live audience. In addition, many traveling groups from across Canada and around the world are featured every summer.

A Message from the President

“On behalf of the Kitsilano Showboat Society, it is my privilege to welcome all the citizens of Vancouver and visitors worldwide to make plans to attend great entertainment at one of the major attractions in Vancouver. Showboat’s scenic backdrop of the North Shore Mountains, English Bay and West Coast sunsets is one of the most spectacular settings anywhere. Today we have entertainers on stage from many of the countries around the world sharing their dances and costumes with us. We thank them all.

I would like to thank all of our supporters, performers, and volunteer organizers for their enthusiasm and enabling Showboat to continue to be so unique. Please join us for an evening of relaxation, enjoyment and fun.”
