2025 BC Provincial Festival - Victoria As Victoria is an expensive summer tourist destination, we strongly recommend that you stay on the UVic campus for the festival. A block of single and double rooms has been set aside for BC Provincial Festival participants. Please see the Accommodation Information page here, for information about booking these rooms for the festival. Please note that all participants under the age of 19 must be accompanied by an adult.
Food Options on Campus The Cove dining hall on campus will be open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Further options will be posted on the UVic website in May: https://www.uvic.ca/food
Parking on Campus Parking passes are purchased from a machine in any of the lots and once purchased are good for any lot. The machine prompts you for payment using credit cards or exact cash. Please note machines do not give change. You will also need your license plate number for the machine. You can now use a contactless app to pay for daily or weekly campus parking. Download the free HonkMobile app from the AppStore or Google Play, and pay for parking directly from your phone. The app offers a reminder to add more parking time remotely without having to return to your vehicle. More information about parking can be found at: https://www.uvic.ca/security/parking/index.php
