10 Things To Do at Night in Vancouver/Lower Mainland

(P.S I'm too lazy to link these places, so if you would like to know more about them, Google it.)
  1. Robson Square Ice Rink - Free skating until 11 PM on the weekend.
  2. Commodore Lanes & Billiards -  Open until 12 AM on the weekdays
    Or try out Revs 'cause their nachos are freakin' awesome!
  3. Twilight Drive-In - "The Lower Mainland's ONLY drive-in movie theatre!"
  4. Any Tim Hortons - Have some Steeped Tea while playing Monopoly Deal with your friends, and you will never want to leave.
  5. English Bay - Weather permitting, bring several blankets, a few friends and hang out.
  6. Richmond Indoor Paintball - Open until 12 AM everyday
  7. Q1 - Billiards for the seriously bored.
    Or E-Spot for pool and arcade games
  8. Any park - play tag with your flashlights.
    Or you can play hide and seek, but um... actually, don't.
  9. Karaoke at any place - most places tend to open well past 2 AM on weekends
  10. Your house - host a board game night
    Suggestions: Cranium, Balderdash, Apples to Apples, Taboo, Pictionary, Settlers of Catan (but be prepared to lose some friends), Mafia, Jenga
It should be noted that I deliberately left out activities that mainly include eating and clubbing.  While such activities can be extremely fun, they are terrible for your body and wallet.  The suggestions above are pretty "student friendly", as I am currently a poor working scholar. WAH!

*FYI: I haven't found the chance to try out #3 and #6, but I heard they are great! 
**Disclaimer: My sources are somewhat, kind of sort of, not really reliable.

Until next time,
Marry the night!
