The event, presented by Rite Self Storage, will take place at University of Victoria’s University club bringing together active food stations sponsored by local chefs, and an assortment of beverage stations hosted by local wineries, a local brewery, cidery, and a distillery. (Hint: there’s something for everyone!). Click here to find tickets.

Conner explained that around a quarter of all wishes granted in BC and the Yukon are granted right here on the Island.

“We’re continually building a great community around supporting wishes,” said Conner, “and UnWined is our next opportunity to get together, have a fantastic evening, and support wishes. I can’t wait to see everyone there.”
