Mission, Municipality in Fraser Valley, British Columbia, Canada.

Mission extends along the northern bank of the Fraser River, surrounded by mountains and forests at an elevation providing views across the valley.

The settlement originated in 1868 with St. Mary's Mission establishment, later incorporating as a district municipality in 1892 following the Great Land Sale.

The Clarke Foundation Theatre functions as the primary performance venue, presenting theatrical productions, musical concerts, and educational programs throughout the calendar year.

The city maintains multiple recreational facilities, including mountain biking trails, hiking paths, and parks, connected by public transportation routes across the Fraser Valley.

Mission measures river levels through a monitoring station at the Railway Bridge, which served both trains and vehicles from 1891 until 1973.
