Welcome to our 13th annual Toast to the Coast, an event like no other. From humble beginnings as a wine-tasting experience in 2006 to the unique culinary adventure which it is today, we have come a long way together.
With your help, we’ve raised over $1.2 million for ocean conservation initiatives and now we invite you to join us for the next evolution of our fundraising soiree.
For the first time ever Toast to the Coast will take place at the height of the summer allowing us to open up more of the Vancouver Aquarium’s incredible outdoor space to guests.
Sunlight shimmers across the otters’ domain, sea lions call to one another in the gathering dusk and sparks rise into the night.
You will enjoy gourmet dishes from top Ocean Wise® Seafood restaurants, as well as signature drinks from B.C. wineries, breweries and cocktail makers. Forego the formality of the sit-down dinner and wander through the Vancouver Aquarium’s unforgettable galleries. Then further unwind at an electrifying after-party with dancing and late night nibbles.
Throughout the evening you’ll have the opportunity to bid on exciting items and experiences during our silent auction as well as participate in our raffle for the chance to win top-tier prizes!
Food and beverage samples are included with the ticket price.
All proceeds support Ocean Wise’s vital research, education and direct action programs that improve the health of our oceans. Purchase tickets now.
