Active Wear Wednesday


Okanagan Campus | 8:00am–5:00pm

All UBC students, staff, faculty, alumni and community members at all campuses: Wear your Active Wear!

Every Wednesday in February you are invited to wear clothes that encourage you to move throughout your entire day. We want to see your lulu’s or your bright running shoes– anything that encourages you to move! Leave behind those high heels, restrictive ties, skirts and tight pants that can keep you from maintaining your wellbeing!

Every Wednesday during Move UBC, you'll get free and discounted access to many UBC Recreation facilities and classes. 

Pick up a pin at any of the MoveUBC events and sport it on February 5th, 12th, 19th & 26th to help explain why you’re in your active wear. Don’t forget to tag your photos #moveUBC!

Please note: for those with required uniforms, safety clothing or shoes/boots, we encourage you to have a discussion with your supervisors and colleagues to see how you might be able to adapt these requirements, so that you can move easily throughout your day, while still maintaining safety protocol and professionalism.
