Most events of CANCAM 2017 take place on the campus of University of Victoria, about 8 km from downtown Victoria.
- BC Transit provides regular bus service between downtown and UVic (30-40 minutes) until about midnight, see Google Map links below
- In Summer, Victoria is a busy tourist destination, hence hotels tend to be busy, and relatively expensive.
- For your stay, we recommend to use campus housing, which offers several options (see below).
- For those who wish to stay off-campus, we have negotiated availability based reduced rates with a number of hotels, as listed below. Rooms are not guaranteed, and we ask you to book early.
