Meet distillers, brewers and vintners in the Spirits Room. In between pours, they will answer your questions and share their knowledge. In addition to beer, wine and cider, the booming distillery sector will be well represented in the room. Gin has come a long way from the bathtub on Vancouver Island! 19+ only for the Spirits Room.

Meet the chefs, the caterers and fine food purveyors in the Tastes Room. In between samples, ask them about their sourcing and preparation.

They say you should age with dignity. The folks organizing Victoria’s MidLife Show think you should age with a sense of adventure, panache and determination. Are you ready for something new? It could be travel, publishing your novel, skydiving, volunteering, home renovation, live theatre, exploring new technology, or taking an interest course at Camosun.

You can explore many opportunities at the Victoria MidLife Show at the Victoria Conference Centre on November 18. Produced by BetterThan50, the show is an interactive consumer lifestyle event targeting 50 to 70 year olds who constitute fully 36 per cent of the population of Greater Victoria. In addition to Tastes and Spirits, the event includes interactive exhibits, demonstrations, speakers, a fashion show and even a self-defense workshop.
