McArthurGlen Designer Outlet is a quick walk from Templeton Station on the Canada Line. At first I didn’t know how easy it would be to get to the outlet. Just follow the signs and you will make it there in 5 minutes or less.
If you are at Vancouver International Airport, is only 1 stop away. Trips between Templeton Station and the Vancouver Airport are free of charge! If you are super bored during a stop over or a connecting flight, you can totally come here for lunch or a shopping trip.
This was the view from the entrance of the station, so make sure you walk in that general direction. I also loved all the planes flying by as it’s very very close to Vancouver International Airport.
The floor even has this painted, so there’s zero chance of getting lost.
You will know where the main parking entrance is at by the bright turquoise roof.
Oh hey, it’s another plane. So many planes pass by every few minutes.
The first main thing you will see if Caffe Artigiano, which serves amazing coffee. Lines are long, so be prepared to wait.
Yes its true, the Coach line is crazy long and filled with crazy people. I don’t even think there was a large discount either.
McArthurGlen Designer Outlet Vancouver Airport is a joint venture between McArthurGlen, Europe’s leading owner, developer and manager of designer outlets, and Vancouver Airport Authority, a community-based, not-for-profit organization that operates Vancouver International Airport. Did you know there are 20 McArthurGlen Designer Outlets in eight countries in Europe?
I went to one of them in Austria a few years ago and the buildings are pretty similar. It gave me a bit of nostalgia because I remember getting my favourite belt from the McArthurGlen Designer Outlet in Austria.
There’s also some awesome pop up food stalls here, but I will cover that in a future blog post.
