2012 New Years Day Events in Greater Vancouver

Celebrate the first day of a brand new year on January 1, 2012 at a Polar Bear or Penguin Plunge! Annually on the first day of the year, thousands of people participate in or watch as brave revellers jump into the chilly waters of the Pacific Ocean in locations across the Lower Mainland (Vancouver, Port Moody and White Rock)! Watch at those brave enough (or crazy enough!) jump into the Pacific Ocean dressed in swimsuits or in unique costumes! Don't miss this family friendly event - a fun way to spend the first day of a brand new year!
