The Qualicum Beach Skatepark was constructed approximately 25 years ago. In 2023, a Feasibility Study was undertaken, resulting in its reconstruction to allow with more muli-level use and skill progression.
In addition to a modernized skatepark, the project delivers broader improvements to the Community Park, including accessible pathways that link the Civic Centre parking lot and playing fields, as well as multipurpose seating for both the skatepark and nearby amenities.
The project was funded through a $1.2 million allocation from the Town’s Community Amenity Contributions and a grant under the Province of BC’s Growing Communities Fund. In addition, the Qualicum Beach Skaters contributed $130,000, which supported enhancements including coloured concrete and landscaping. Local contractors and suppliers also generously provided discounts and donations to help bring this vision to life.
