Wonderment Festival 2025 (10th Anniversary Edition) features free events taking place in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada over the BC Day Holiday Long Weekend with FREE events taking place at Songhees Park Plaza on Saturday, August 2nd; the Beacon Hill Park Cameron Bandshell on Sunday, August 3rd; and Banfield Park in Vic West (521 Craigflower Road) on Monday, August 4th.

All events are free live music events presented by the Garden City Electronic Music Society and supported by the Government of Canada, the Province of BC, the Capital Regional District and the City of Victoria.

Over the years, Wonderment was supported by public sector funding, regional businesses and other community groups, without which the festival’s free outdoor programming would not be possible.  We are ever grateful for this support, as well as the private donations we receive year round and at Wonderment events.
