natesfirewife Posted July 10, 2011 #1 Share Posted July 10, 2011 I was thinking of having a picnic in Stanley Park but was wondering if we'd be allowed to bring a bottle of wine or not. Does anybody know if that's allowed in Stanley Park or what the law says about that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c-to-sea Posted July 10, 2011 #2 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Consumption of alcoholic beverages in public is against the law. However, the law is usually only enforced in connection with large gatherings and events or when the consumer(s) are misbehaving. Just be discreet.

ell52 Posted July 10, 2011 #3 Share Posted July 10, 2011 It is against the law to consume alcohol in public spaces - but as mentioned by the previous poster, be discreet, don't flaunt it and you should be fine. People do it (wine with picnic) all the time. If you're not being rowdy, there is no reason for the police to even notice. Worst thing that will happen is the police will dump it out for you.

trophy_23 Posted July 10, 2011 #4 Share Posted July 10, 2011 Keep it under control and not rowdy and you are fine. As mentioned keep it discreet and you will have no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl Rosebery Posted July 10, 2011 #5 Share Posted July 10, 2011 I was thinking of having a picnic in Stanley Park but was wondering if we'd be allowed to bring a bottle of wine or not. Does anybody know if that's allowed in Stanley Park or what the law says about that? Stick to BC wine and you'll be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
