Park for free at nine downtown parkades this Saturday and next, thanks to an initiative by the Downtown Victoria Business Association, the Bay Centre and Robbins Parking.
People heading downtown to shop or enjoy a meal will not have to pay for parking on Nov. 18 and 25 at certain City of Victoria parkades and Robbins lots/parkades, including those on Broughton Street, The Bay Centre, Yates Street, Broughton Square, Johnson Street, Sussex Place, View Street, Harbour Centre and Centennial Square.
“The Downtown Victoria Business Association is pleased to partner with Robbins and work with the City of Victoria to provide free parking for people to come downtown and experience our unique retailers and food and beverage businesses,” said Jeff Bray, the association’s CEO.
“There is no better time to shop local than Black Friday and the holiday shopping season.”
