Granville Giants Murals

The Granville Giants Murals are a series of vibrant, oversized paintings adorning the walls of buildings on Granville Island, a popular cultural and shopping district in Vancouver. Created by local and international artists, these murals depict whimsical giants interacting with the island's iconic landmarks, such as the public market and concrete silos. The project began as a community art initiative to brighten the industrial landscape and has since become a beloved photo spot. Visitors can walk along Johnston Street and the surrounding alleys to discover the murals, each with its own theme, from a giant reading a book to one juggling vegetables. The art adds a playful layer to the island's already lively atmosphere, which includes artisan studios, eateries, and the famous Granville Island Brewing.
