The MAC Box Office, located at the McMillan Arts Centre in Parksville, is your local ticketing hub for arts, culture, and entertainment across Parksville, Qualicum Beach, and the Oceanside region of Vancouver Island. Similar to Ticketmaster but focused on our vibrant local scene, the MAC Box Office offers year-round tickets for concerts, live music, comedy shows, art exhibitions, creative workshops, and art classes. Whether you're looking for an evening of entertainment or a chance to explore your creative side, the MAC Box Office makes it easy to connect with the best events our community has to offer—while supporting local artists, performers, and cultural organizations.

NOTE:

All MAC Box office tickets can be purchased online or in person at the McMillan Arts Centre Box Office at 133 McMillan Street in Parksville, British Columbia (on Vancouver Island)

If you order tickets that are to be picked up, you can pick them up at the Box Office, or at your event.
