The Parksville Beach Festival Society presents the Quality Foods Sand Sculpting Competition and Exhibition, a world class event for master sand sculptors and official qualifying event for the World Championship of Sand Sculpting. Master sand sculptors travel from all corners of the globe to participate in this remarkable competition in Parksville, British Columbia, Canada.

From the BC Open to its present- day title, which welcomed 1115,188 visitors in 2019 “The Quality Foods Sand Sculpting Competition”, has evolved into a world class Master Sculptor competition.
Known to locals as “Beachfest”, this 5 ½ week long family-oriented festival runs July 14 to August 20, 2023 includes the Quality Foods Sand Sculpting Competition & Exhibition, Tim Hortons free summer concert series, buskers, an artisan market and much more.
