In Victoria, we take food seriously. Foodie, connoisseur, epicurean - call us what you will, we know good food when we taste it. Luckily, likeminded visitors to our fine city can enjoy a feast of food-centric events happening in October. Be sure to bring your appetite to Vancouver!
 

Chocolate and Cider

With its warm, spicy and sweet flavour range, cider is the perfect fall beverage. Make this delicious seasonal beverage tastier still by pairing it with chocolate! Enjoy a flight of Merridale Cider paired with chocolates from Julie’s Chocolate delight. This unique event will be held at the Tudor House Liquor Store on October 26. Tickets can be found on Eventbrite.
 

Victoria Food Tours

If you want to dive deep into Victoria’s food scene, then this is the tour for you! A Taste of Victoria: Food Tours begin at the Public Market, taking you on a 2-hour tasting journey around the downtown core. Your guide will give insight into the city’s history while you enjoy gastronomic delights from local establishments.
 

Jon Montgomery Pizza Pigout

Pizza and a good cause?! You can have it all at the Jon Mongomery Pizza Pigout. Men’s Skeleton Olympic Gold Medalist Jon Montgomery has partnered with KidSports Victoria to bring you a night that includes beer, a live auction, raffles and, of course, lots of delicious pizza. Proceeds from the event will go toward KidSport, an organization that provides financial assistance to kids who want to play sports. The Pigout will be happening on October 24 and will be open to those 19 and older.
