Find Great Father’s Day Gifts at Park Royal

What do you get the person that has everything? Unique gifts don’t always spring to mind at the first mention of Father’s Day. If you are having trouble coming up with the perfect gift, all it takes is one stroll around Park Royal to kick-start your imagination and help you think outside the box.

For the Active Dad: British Columbia is known for its beautiful scenery and there is no better way to experience that than from a hike or camping getaway. Atmosphere offers specialty brands for hiking boots, clothing, poles, tents and sleeping bags — anything that you might need for an adventure. If Dad prefers to work out indoors, Peloton offers at-home workout equipment to help stay in shape, no matter the weather.

For the Game Day Dad: If your Dad spends Sundays cheering on his favourite teams, a comfortable place to watch the game is a great gift idea. Big screens from Best Buy make it possible to catch every play without squinting at a small screen. Already has a television? A recliner from The Brick can help Dad settle in and keep comfortable.

For the Tech Dad: Everyone loves a good gadget. From virtual assistants at home, the next video game or a new smart phone, tech is always a good gift for Dad. The Source offers the newest in toys and hobbies, while EB Games keep fathers on the cutting edge of game play, as well as offering the classics that he loves. If your Dad spends more time in his office than he does at the dinner table, visit Staples for new additions to make his workday easier.

For the Bookwork Dad: For the Dads who love history or a gripping detective novel, visit Indigo for a page-turner that he will love. Thinka and Zing Paperie and Design provide all the necessary stationary to allow Dad to create his own story, keep a journal or maintain a schedule with an attractive planner.

For the Fashion-Forward Dad: If your Dad treats every sidewalk like a catwalk or follows along with current fashion trends, clothing and accessories might just be the perfect gift. A lightweight shirt from Tommy Bahama is the perfect fit for the funky, fun-loving father figure while a unique pair of kicks from Sneakerbox can be the perfect finishing touch to an outfit. If your dad loves to accessorize, buy a watch at Boathouse that can take him from day to night.

For the Experience Dad: If your Dad is more interested in an activity or self-care than gadgets or clothing, Park Royal has got you covered. Cineplex provides a movie night out that is a way to bond and enjoy an evening together. A sports manicure at one of our many nail bars, combined with a fresh hair cut makes Dad feel pampered.

 For the Sommelier Dad: British Columbia is known for its wineries and distilleries. When you want to impress, choose a wine that speaks to their tastes. From bold reds, delicate whites and celebratory bubbles, BC Liquor Store has options for everyone. Excellent wine can be shared together or saved for a special occasion, but they will always remember that it came from you.

No matter what type of Dad you are shopping for, there are plenty of options at Park Royal. We want to help our shoppers make memories and that means accessible prices and a ton of options. Instead of just purchasing a gift, come spend the day with us at one of our entertainment areas and restaurants.
