The Granville Entertainment District is a neighbourhood in Downtown Vancouver known for its vast assortment of bars, danceclubs, restaurants, nightlife, and urban adult oriented shops and entertainment.

The entertainment district centred on a seven-block stretch of the Granville Mall and surrounding streets.

The city of Vancouver, and subsequently one of its biggest streets, were originally named after Granville Leveson-Gower.

[1] The city eventually changed its name to Vancouver, but Granville Street stuck, and the Entertainment District derived its name from being part of the same street.

Prior to the establishment of the Entertainment District, the area was home to a number of movie theatres, which gave that stretch of Granville Street the nickname "Theatre Row".
