The Zombie Walk returns to downtown Victoria on October 7

Share

Feeling a little dead lately? You’ll fit right in!

The 2017 Victoria Zombie Walk takes place on Saturday, October 7th. Hordes will trudge their way through downtown Victoria in search of British Columbia’s finest brains.

The event is presented by Umbrella Corp. West Coast Operations and encourages the Victoria population to play dead – literally. Rip up some clothes, bathe in some blood (preferably fake), and show off your most treacherous, horrifying face possible.

All humans are welcome to partake in the event, which is one of Victoria’s most notorious and largest public flash mobs. Zombies, ghouls, wights, revenants, walkers, runners, and flesh-fanatics of all kinds will line the streets, with a few survivors for good measure.

Serious zombie enthusiasts can also head to Roxy Theater post-walk to catch the Dead trilogy, starting at 5 pm and running all evening. Costumes are absolutely encouraged, and it is a licensed venue.
