Central Vancouver Island Events & Festivals
Parksville & Qualicum Beach - Vancouver Island Events Central
No matter when you visit, the central Vancouver Island events calendar is bound to offer something of interest. There are over 140 annual events and festivals in the Parksville and Qualicum Beach region alone.
The central Vancouver Island events calendar includes traditional favourites with long histories including the Brant Wildlife Festival, Fathers' Day Show n Shine, and the Coombs Fair as well as one of North America’s most widely-recognized and popular events, the Parksville Beach Festival. Parksville is also known for having one of the largest small town Canada Day parades in Western Canada.
In May, one can alternately chill out and do a fiery dance with red-hot chili peppers at Qualicum Beach’s Fire & Ice street festival. Equally unique and entertaining are weekends dedicated to farmers' markets and food & wine, volleyball, childrens' entertainment, mountain biking, music and uplifting Christmas craft events.
