When asked what makes Qualicum Beach unique, people often mention the beautiful flowers that flourish throughout the town! In keeping with this, the Communities in Bloom program has showcased public and private gardens in Qualicum Beach for many years.

The program celebrates excellence in community pride and quality of life, and the Town has been fortunate to have been awarded many prizes over the years and looks forward to continued participation in years to come.
