Festival Victoria is an oxymoron, hemlock, big toukas kissoff. The most liveable city in Canada, The Garden City, The Poetry Capitol of Canada can't seem to keep a festival going to save it's life. We have lost First Night, ROOTSFEST, Manulife Literary Festival etc etc even though the city of the newly wed and nearly dead is arts friendly and the biggest per capita book consumer in the country. Go figger.

Miracolo! Pacific Festival of the Book is in its third year; and the reason for its ongoing success is a grass roots approach. This year the main venues are St. John the Divine Church with its beautiful interior spaces and gardens, Intrepid Theatre, the Victoria Public Library, the Community Arts Council of Victoria, and Centennial Square, donated by the city of Victoria.
