Parksville Beach Festival Site Move in Parksville Community Park
The Parksville Beach Festival Society is turning up the excitement this summer with a dazzling new chapter in our beloved tradition. Get ready for the highly anticipated Quality Foods Sand Sculpting Competition and Exhibition as it moves to an all-new, dynamic venue in Parksville Community Park!
After years of close collaboration with the City of Parksville, a new location has been chosen that promises to elevate every aspect of the festival. Nestled beside the beach volleyball courts and featuring a newly designed pathway directly connecting to the parking lot behind the curling rink, this site not only enhances visitor access but also preserves the breathtaking ocean view at our newly revamped public Gathering Place. With a larger space that can welcome even more sculptors in future years, the event is set to captivate the hearts of over 100,000 annual visitors!
“This new venue is a true game-changer,” declares Cheryl Dill, Society President. “We’re excited to enhance the experience for both our visitors and our talented sculptors. While we expect a few growing pains, our passionate volunteers and expert team are committed to making this festival unforgettable.”
Adding to the buzz is this year’s sand sculpting theme ”Circus by the Sea” a spirited choice selected by public vote. Prepare to be amazed by an explosion of creativity, as 29 internationally acclaimed sand sculptors bring a carnival of wonders and imagination right to our shores. The festivities kick off on Friday, July 11, promising an experience that blends art, innovation, and community spirit like never before.
Renowned for its spectacular summer events and world-class sand sculpting competition, the Parksville Beach Festival is the place to be for families and art enthusiasts alike. Join us as we celebrate the season with sensational sand art, lively music, and the natural beauty of Parksville Community Park.
