Great Canadian Beer Festival
Celebrate GCBF 30th Anniversary!
The Great Canadian Beer Festival offers a wide range of activities for everyone to enjoy. Whether you’re challenging your friends on the 100-foot-long Obstacle Course, marveling at the jaw-dropping skills of the hula hoop girl, or dancing to the beats of the DJ, there’s something for everyone at the festival.
The Victoria Beer Society started as a collaborative vision shared between bar managers, beer reps, brewers, local stakeholders and chefs, all coming together with the intent to celebrate what makes our city’s craft beer scene vibrant. Victoria Beer Week launched in 2014 as an annual craft beer festival showcasing craft beer in a variety of unique venues around Greater Victoria. In 2018, the Victoria Beer Society regrouped to reflect on our achievements and assess what’s next. As a result of this process, we decided to rebrand as the Victoria Beer Society with an expanded calendar of events and new membership program developed for Victoria’s craft beer consumers. In 2019, we had the honour of producing Canada’s oldest beer festival, Great Canadian Beer Festival, which will return to Victoria in
