Win a Trip to Hawaii By Eating Vancouver’s Most Delicious Things

Work your way through our 25 Things to Eat list, and be entered to win a trip to Maui. It's a tough assignment, but we know you can do it.

Just in case eating your way through our annual Things to Eat Now list wasn’t reward enough in and of itself, we’re upping the ante this year.

For the brave Vancouver gourmands willing to go out and sample a good chunk of the delicious treats on our list—from bubble waffles to spicy crab pasta to cardamom coffee—we’ve got a very big, very special, very good prize in store: a trip for two to the Hawaii Food and Wine Festival in Kā’anapali, Maui. All you’ve got to do to enter is eat at least 1 of the 25 options by August 31, 2025, and upload the photographic evidence below. Each photo uploaded is 1 entry and you can enter each category once for a total of 25 entries. The more entries, the more likely you are to win.

Hungry for more details on this grandest of grand prizes? You’ve got it. The package includes flights for two from YVR to Maui, airport transports, a four-night stay at the OUTRIGGER Kā’anapali Beach Resort and, last but not least, two tickets to the truly gluttonous and gourmet Hawaii Food and Wine Fest main event on October 25, 2025.

We’ve also got a sweet runner-up prize draw: a gift card pack to eat your way through Kā’anapali on your next Maui trip, including $100 to Hula Grill, $100 to Lelani’s on the Beach and 2 VIP tickets to “Myths of Maui Luau” at The Royal Lahaina Resort & Bungalows.

Sure, you’ve got eight months to get this tasty assignment done, but we don’t recommend a last-minute cram sesh. So study up on this year’s list and get started on your entry to the 25 Things to Eat competition now.
