Win dinner @SeasonsInQEPark and White Christmas @TheArtsClub #hb604xmas
You may have noticed that I’m doing a few fabulous giveaways this holiday season. The second one of my Christmas (well, let’s face it, I was raised Catholic, so I *do* celebrate Christmas) giveaways is a gift certificate for dinner for two at the wonderfully amazing Seasons in the Park (at Queen Elizabeth Park) and immediately after, the almost sold-out show White Christmas at the Stanley Industrial Alliance, produced by The Arts Club.
Based upon the Paramount Pictures film written for the screen by Norman Krasna, Norman Panama, and Melvin Frank, with music and lyrics by Irving Berlin Book by David Ives and Paul Blake, this tap-dancing delight brims with tunes—including “Blue Skies,” “Sisters,” and the ever-popular “White Christmas”—that will fill you with the joy of the season.
I had wanted to have dinner at Seasons in the Park at the Queen Elizabeth Park ever since I moved to Canada. This year, I finally went to Seasons as the wedding of one of my absolute best friends was there. Amazing service, beautiful location and stunning, breath-taking view. And the food… oh my, the food. You need to experience it for yourself. You can make reservations at 604.874.8008m. Located at Cambie St & W 33rd Ave in Vancouver, BC, Seasons’ hours are Monday – Saturday from 11:30am and Sunday from 10:30am.
Enjoy Vancouver’s best panoramic view from every seat in the house, along with award-winning cuisine and exceptional service.

It can be a friend, your boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse, your Mom, Dad. Whoever you would like to take to Seasons in the Park for dinner and then enjoy White Christmas, tell me – what makes them so special in your life?

You can follow Seasons in The Park on Twitter as well as The Arts Club. They are both two fantastic organizations and steadfast supporters of mine, and I am delighted and grateful that they have partnered with me with this holiday giveaway. Enjoy!
I would take my best friend who I have known for 32 years and who I can never thank enough: my husband.
The person I’d share this with has stood beside me and believes in me, no matter what path I decide to follow.
I would love to take is my mom. She’s a very giving person, always putting others before herself first. I’d actually probably give the tickets for both my mom and dad to enjoy a special night out because they are both very special people who always give more to others and leave no time for themselves.

I would take a close friend whom I’ve known since elementary school. We used to watch the Bing Crosby “White Christmas” every Christmas holiday together on sleepovers and sing along with the movie.
I would take my little sister. She is my rock. She has so much wisdom even though she’s 7 years younger than me. I love to spend time with her, especially during the holiday season.
I would take my husband.
Well, I’d love to take my boyfriend to this! What makes him special… Well, a lot of things. I truly admire and appreciate how sensitive and strong he is. Although he is in touch with his emotions and very empathetic to others, he is also very strong, sturdy, and stable. To me, this is the most rare and lovely combination of character traits. He is always so good to me and I’d love to take him out for a special night. Keep the contests coming! 🙂
I would take my best friend, Mark, who’s been there for me through some of the stupidest trials a person can endure. Any guy who comes over at the end of a cockroach infestation, pulls out your fridge and says “You don’t need to see this, stay away” and cleans it all for you, so you can keep living there in ignorance…
That’s a friend. And I’m blessed. He LOVES the theatre, and there’s so little I can do to repay how kind he’s been, so I’d love this. Thanks for the contests, Raul!
I would take my boy to see it… a nice romantic dinner, followed by a great night of theatre! What better way to say Merry Christmas and that I truly care 🙂
I moved out 3 years ago, and ever since, my Mom has been incredible with helping me. I feel like I’ve given so little back to her and this would certainly help do that. My mom is the best!
I would enjoy this with my mother. She is truly my best friend and the wisest person I know. She is my biggest supporter and is always there for me.
I would like to take my mom. She’s given me life and then saved it twice by taking care of me when I was in need. She is my earth angel.
I would take my new partner. She has been soo good to me over the past month when I was dealing with some things and I am so greatful. She cannot afford to go home for Christmas this year and so I am also staying in Vancouver to celebrate the hoidays with her and show her just how much she means to me.
I’d take the bf – he lives with my many faults and still adores me, for that I’m grateful. 🙂
Never been before. My lady friend would be excited to try it.
I would like to take my mom as she’s done so much for me.
I would love to take my mum to this because she is the reason I exist in this world! 🙂
i would take my grandma whos visiting town for 1st time in 10 years. special cause she is tough. despitr all the challenges she raised 3 succesful boys. and she remains the most chill granny ull meet :-p
I would love to take my best friend Reena, who I met a couple of years ago. She has inspired me to become a better, and stronger person. She is one of my role models and I look up to her everyday. I used to be a really shy person, but she has brought out the energizing side of me. She spoils me just as much as she spoils her boyfriend. We hang out so much that I think her boyfriend gets jealous! Being able to win this and to treat her only shows a small handful of gratitude I have towards her.. nothing I do can compare to the amount of love and caring she has given me over the years, regardless of any downfalls she may encounter. She always puts others before her, and for that I admire.
My hard working New Zealander husband would be the person I would take to experience the White Christmas musical. He’s been studying hard for a very compressed program at BCIT and his last day is Friday, December 17th. He’s so focused on school he hasn’t had one wink of holiday cheer. I would love to whisk him away for a lovely festive evening and help him get launched into the Christmas spirit!
I would take my friend Riki cuz she’s so inspiring & loves to have fun! The perfect date for a single gal like myself!
I would take my older brother to the show. He has essentially been the father figure in my life since my teenage years and he’s one of my biggest role models. I’m leaving to work in Alberta next month and this would be a great way to remember this winter holidays before I move away.
UPDATE – The winner of my contest (drawn from all entries via Random.org) was Gwen. Congratulations!
