Victoria, BC - Wingstock, Victoria’s premier community wing festival in support of the Victoria Firefighters Charitable Foundation, is officially returning for its third annual event in 2026. Following two highly successful years that exceeded expectations and delivered meaningful local impact, organizers are excited to announce that Wingstock 2026 will take place on June 20, 2026, with tickets going on sale April 1st. Launched as a grassroots fundraiser with a big heart and a bold vision, Wingstock has quickly become a must-attend community celebration, bringing together local restaurants, beverage partners, firefighters, sponsors, and thousands of wing lovers for a day of food, fun, and fundraising. In just its first two years, Wingstock has raised $43,000, with 100% of proceeds returned directly to the community through the Victoria Firefighters Charitable Foundation. These funds are making a meaningful impact on Vancouver Island, with a primary focus on supporting a local school backpack program that helps families in need and ensures children begin the school year equipped for success. Additional support has also been provided to the Victoria Hospitals Foundation for the Neo-Natal Intensive Care Unit at Victoria General Hospital, helping critically ill infants receive life-saving care close to home, surrounded by their families. Building on the momentum of its first two years, Wingstock 2026 promises an expanded experience including enhanced vendor exposure, broader marketing efforts, and new opportunities for community partners to shine. Professional photography and video content from past events continues to fuel promotion across social channels, with even more creative storytelling planned for the year ahead. Wingstock is proudly made possible by the generous support of local restaurants, beverage partners, sponsors, and volunteers, all united by a shared goal: keeping fundraising dollars on the island and strengthening the community we serve. “For the second year in a row, our community has come together to support local schools, parks, and hospitals. This event wouldn’t be possible without the incredible local businesses that give back so generously while serving our community every day. We’re thrilled to return once again, welcoming guests to experience the food and beverages that help make Victoria vibrant, diverse, and truly one of a kind.”- Frank Williams- Victoria Wingstock Organizer and Victoria Firefighter
