The Victoria Event Centre (VEC) was established in 2003 and is managed by Victoria Multi-Cultural Society.
The Victoria Multi-Cultural Society is a non-profit society with a mandate to provide an affordable, flexible, accommodating multi-purpose venue for small arts and entertainment groups, cultural organizations and non-profit communities to hold their shows/performances, fundraisers and community celebrations.
Accessibility at the VEC is an ongoing project, and we continue to work to make the space more accessible to all kinds of folks. There are also a lot of different barriers to accessibility that have been identified, that we continue to work on. As part of this process, we ask guests: If you are able to do so, use the Broad Street stair entrance and mulit-user washroom. There is only one accessible entrance and washroom, help make sure those who need it can use it. Do not move tables or chairs without venue permission. Keep aisles clear at all times and please return your glassware to the bar.

It may have weathered the pandemic, but Victoria’s performing arts community is increasingly homeless in a city where property values continue to rise
For physical events that happen at a specific time. For example a concert, or dance performance. If there are multiple shows, you can still duplicate your event to cover them all.
