Surrey has landed a spot on the Top 10 list for Culture Days events held across the country.

While Surrey didn’t land a spot in the “overall” top 10 ranking, the city tied for seventh place with Ontario cities Ottawa and Hamilton in the 500,000+ population category.

Each year, Culture Days releases the Top Ten Cities and Towns according to the number of activities published on the Culture Days website for the previous edition of the annual weekend event.

Surrey had events around town, including children’s art classes, meditation classes, and more.

“Thousands of passionate individuals, organizations, municipalities and partners come together to bring Culture Days alive on their block, in their neighbourhood and throughout their communities in hundreds of cities and towns of all sizes across Canada,” states culturedays.ca.

This year, the events ran from Sept. 29 to Oct. 1.
