Vancouver Island Budtender Events (V.I.B.E) is putting on two events this month. The first is in Victoria on Sunday, 22 Feburary 2026. The second is in Nanaimo the following day, Monday, 23 Feburary 2026. Tickets are available online and are $10 each for budtenders and retailers, or $20 each for brand reps and LPs. Retailers and budtenders are eligible for samples, so be sure to register your Selling It Right license number and bring your wallet card with you.
The V.I.B.E series is a on a bimonthly schedule, with events every other month. This gives continuity to the events, which is helpful in a constrained area like Vancouver Island. Getting off the island and back to it can be frustrating at the best of times, and local events smooth out those rough edges and give everyone a better experience.
The Victoria event on Sunday is being held at CUBspot on Yates Street. It starts at 4pm and runs until 7pm. Pre-registration is required, and there will be no late registrations at the door.
The Nanaimo event is on Monday and is being held at the Chapel Street Hall. It runs between 5pm and 8pm. As with the Victoria event, pre-registration is mandatory, so be sure to go and register now.
