Food Truck Festival event comes to Royal BC Museum


VICTORIA, BC – It’s easy to build up an appetite as you discover our province’s past.

But don’t worry, the Royal BC Museum has you covered, as it rolls out its first ever Food Truck Festival, a tasty summer-long event taking place from May to October.

Starting with a half-festival May 1, and full slate of food trucks May 8, the Royal BC Museum’s Newcombe Plaza will be transformed into an outdoor international food fair, featuring some of the finest food trucks and most delicious food in Victoria.

Pick up some of your favourite eats from favourite local vendors such as Pig, DeadBeetz, A Streetcar Named New Orleans, Puerto Vallarta Amigos, The Love Perogy and Wild West BBQ Salmon, and stop by our Truffles Catering station for a local beer or wine.

Then think of the Royal BC Museum as Victoria’s living room as you stay to enjoy our warm and welcoming eating area, featuring recycled and reused furniture and décor, creating a relaxed urban vibe.


The Food Truck Festival event is open to everyone. Newcombe Plaza is a courtyard located on the south side of the Royal BC Museum property behind the museum. The festival event runs Sunday to Thursday from 11 am to 6 pm, and Friday to Saturday 11 am to 9 pm.

The museum and archives celebrate culture and history, telling the stories of BC in ways that enlighten, stimulate and inspire. Looking to the future, by 2017 the Royal BC Museum will be a refreshed, modern museum, extending its reach far beyond Victoria as a world-class cultural venue and repository of digital treasures.
