Victoria Day - Pomp, Ceremony & Fun
The Burnaby Village Museum site is set in the 1920s - a place where 
pictures of the King George V and Queen Mary are hung in the school 
house, where the Union Jack flies over the site and where Victoria Day 
is celebrated in grand style.
Traditional Victoria Day entertainment at the museum includes:
- a parade throughout the village
- historical re-enactors, the Seymour Artillery Company with their 
encampment in our meadow, provide cannon firings and a special salute to 
the Queen
- character actors playing the part of Queen Victoria and her 
ladies-in-waiting who perform a Queen’s Levée
- Tiddly Cove Morris Dancers
- a colossal birthday cake decorated with blueberries and strawberries 
in the shape of the Union Jack (public are invited to a free piece)
Victoria Day Celebrations May 21
at the Burnaby Village Museum, 11:00am - 4:30pm, 6501 Deer Lake Avenue, 
Burnaby
Admission: $ 5.00-$10.00
