Description
Victoria's 26th Annual Ska & Reggae Festival will run Wednesday, June 18 to Sunday, June 22, 2025.
Update: Both VIP Full Fest & General Admission Full Festival Passes are now SOLD OUT.
We now have a LATE BIRD PASS which is simply the combined price of all single ticketed shows. We did this so you wouldn't have to purchase 5 individual tickets (which is the same as a Full Fest Pass). Note the Late Bird Pass is not a VIP Full Fest Pass. It is the same as a General Admission Pass but without the discount.
After celebrating a huge milestone last year with our 25th anniversary, we’re turning the energy up even higher for 2025! Get your festival passes early and treat yourself, your partner, your loved ones, or your crew to an unforgettable summer experience.
This year’s festival promises the same incredible mix of hometown, national, and international talent you've come to expect—plus a few surprises. Five full days of diverse programming will bring together the best in ska, reggae, hip-hop, funk, global roots, bass music, calypso, and anything else that makes your feet move and your soul groove.
Skip the hassle of buying individual tickets and save with a festival pass. Choose between VIP Full Fest Passes or General Admission Full Fest Passes so you can enjoy everything the festival has to offer—your way.
VIP FULL FEST PASSES INCLUDE:
Guaranteed admission to Ship Point, Victoria Curling Club, and any other festival venue until the headlining act begins
VIP beverage service at Ship Point and Victoria Curling Club (separate bar)
Access to VIP bathrooms at Ship Point and Victoria Curling Club
Access to the VIP Lounge at Ship Point and Victoria Curling Club
Please note: You must be 19+ with valid ID to purchase either the General Admission or VIP Full Fest Pass.
