Victoria, BC has always been a place for dreamers. A temperate little oasis perched on the calm waters of The Georgia Strait, Victoria attracts people who want a little something extra out of life. Come visit Victoria this October to take part in the dream!
CIRQUE DU SOLEIL: CORTEO
Whenever anyone tries to describe Cirque Du Soleil (literally “circus of the sun”), they tend to use words like “incredible,” “awe-inspiring,” “dream-like,” and “fantastical.” Many shows are “awesome” or “fantastic” – Cirque Du Soleil IS awe and IS fantasy. For decades, they’ve been the leading dream engineers in the world, crafting the most profoundly affecting combinations of art, athleticism and storytelling that have ever existed.
Cirque’s latest travelling show, Corteo, is no exception. Allusively telling the story of a clown imagining his own funeral procession, Corteo is full of warmth, wit, and wonder, filled to the brim with live music, 51 acrobats, and singers and actors from all around the world. Corteo has already shown to 8 million people in 64 cities in 19 countries on four continents, and from October 4 to October 7, it will play at Victoria’s Save On Memorial Centre.
Seeing Cirque live is to experience what it is to be a child again. Don’t miss out on this one.
GOODLIFE FITNESS MARATHON
The marathon is one of those achievements that many people keep on their bucket list. The ultimate test of endurance and training, it is a guiding light for those who want to achieve their greatest self – and with its warm (but not too warm!) temperatures, Victoria is the perfect place to achieve that dream! Register now to race on October 7, and don’t worry – if you’re not up to the full marathon, there are plenty of other options for getting out and getting active! It’s great fun – and good fitness – every year!
Of course, if you love to dream, then you need a great place to sleep. Count on the Days Inn Victoria on The Harbour for a great night’s rest, so you can get up and start your adventures the next morning!
