2026 i-Land Fest is happening July 3 to 5 at Ship Point in downtown Victoria. i-Land Fest was established in 2024 and is Vancouver Island’s first and only Caribbean Carnival — a three-day celebration of Caribbean music, dance, food, and culture that brings the warmth of the islands to Canada’s West Coast. Launched with 10,000 attendees at its inaugural event, i-Land Fest has quickly become a signature cultural experience for Victoria. Each summer, the festival unites thousands in a joyful celebration of heritage, creativity, and community through a grand parade, live performances, authentic Caribbean cuisine, and immersive cultural showcases.
