June 3, 2022 Update:

The Philippine Consulate General in Vancouver posted this on their Facebook page:
The Philippine Consulate General in Vancouver is pleased to invite everyone to “Proudly Philippines - Philippine Food and Travel Fair" at the Robson Square in downtown Vancouver on Saturday, 11 June 2022

Proudly Philippines was first launched in 2019 to showcase Philippine cuisine and travel destinations to the Canadian and second-generation Filipino-Canadian markets, with the hope of introducing to them a glimpse of Filipino culture and enticing them to visit the many beautiful places in the Philippines. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic that hit the world, including Canada, however, we had to do virtual iterations of Proudly Philippines in the twO years that followed. This year, as Canada emerges from the throes of the pandemic, we are delighted to bring back to you, in person, our Proudly Philippines event.

Celebrating everything Filipino, Proudly Philippines will feature Philippine food products and cuisine, tour packages to travel destinations in the Philippines, and Filipino non-food businesses in Vancouver, as well as cultural performances, intended to create a Philippine experience" for all. Learn more about our participating vendors and performers in the days leading to the event.

Come and spend the day with us at Proudly Philippines as we celebrate the 124th anniversary of Philippine Independence and Filipino Heritage Month in Canada. The market will open at 10 a.m.

June 3, 2022 Update:

I found this video on YouTube promoting the event.

Based on this, we still don't have a list of vendors or programs for the day.

I will do my best to keep an eye out if additional details will be released by Vancouver PCG before the event and update this post.

June 6, 2022 Update: A Facebook post on the PCG in Vancouver page has been shared with the list of food vendors.
