Daily Hive expands to Vancouver Island with new Victoria website
Well hello, Vancouver Island. It’s nice to see you.
Daily Hive, Canada’s fastest-growing digital publication, has arrived in the beautiful city of Victoria, BC, with the launch of a brand-new website. It’s been a long time coming and an exciting milestone for our publication, which started just a short ferry ride away.
For nearly 16 years, we have delivered high-quality and hyper-local content, focusing on bringing food, sports, news, events and lifestyle stories to audiences in Vancouver and across British Columbia. Since our inception, we have been continually growing and now amass over 100 million content views in BC every month — and are proud to be Western Canada’s largest digital publication. And between our local, national and trending content, we garner nearly 300 million monthly views across Canada, with outposts in Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Toronto, Montreal, Seattle and Portland.
While we have been writing about Victoria and Vancouver Island with increasing frequency over the past decade, we’ve never had a full site dedicated to our province’s capital region.
That all changes TODAY. And to celebrate our launch, make sure to scroll down and take part in our incredible giveaway!

Meet Daily Hive Victoria, your new home for all things food and fun in Victoria and Vancouver Island. Daily Hive Victoria is our eighth city website in North America and an important landmark for expanding our footprint across British Columbia.
As the editor in chief of Daily Hive, overseeing editorial content in all of our markets, I am personally thrilled to spearhead our expansion to this gem in the Pacific Northwest. As Vancouver’s coastal neighbour to the west, a lot of our audience and staff have deep connections to Victoria and the Island, whether it’s where they’re from, where they go for adventure and relaxation, or are curious about exploring.
Our editors at Daily Hive are frequently asked about the best places to eat, drink and hang out in the cities where we operate. And as we started to do more coverage about Victoria and the surrounding region, we started to get more questions about the best things to do and places to eat and visit, which led to creating more content to answer those important questions. So creating a website wholly dedicated to Victoria felt like a natural step in our evolution.
