What is DOZER DAY?
Dozer Day is like going to a fair only our rides are real heavy construction equipment.  Kids hop in the driver's seat and actually drive big yellow dozers, dump trucks and other heavy equipment with a professional operator at their side. Not only is it a dream come true for kids (and fun for the whole family), the event also benefits many local, children's charities.

What is the easiest way to get to Dozer Day?
New this year, save time and hassle by riding C-Tran from the 164th Park-and-Ride directly to the Dozer Day entrance. You'll need a C-Tran ticket if you are over 6; however we have a special souvenir for those who use C-Tran.C-Tran bus schedule.

Is there something for the whole
family at Dozer Day?
 

You bet there is! Dozer Day is an exciting event for the entire family. The fun begins with a a ride into the event on a gigantic articulated hauler.
