We're gathering Victoria listings — check back or submit an event you know about.
Victoria is home to the Great Canadian Beer Festival — the country's oldest and most storied craft-beer festival, held every September on Vancouver Island since 1993 — plus Victoria Beer Week in late February and a strong year-round taproom scene concentrated in the Rock Bay district and downtown. Local heavyweights Phillips, Driftwood, Vancouver Island Brewing and Moon Under Water anchor the city's beer identity.
Victoria's calendar peaks in September around the Great Canadian Beer Festival weekend and in late February for Beer Week; the rest of the year is driven by brewery-hosted tap takeovers, release nights and Vancouver Island trail-style brewery visits.
