MEDIA CONTACTS

Don’t Forget About Your Publicity!

The Chilliwack Cultural Centre and Centre Box Office want to help you make your event as successful as possible. While we are pleased to assist you, please remember that publicity for your event is your responsibility. Having said that, as a service to our renters, we have compiled a list of local media contacts, both big and small. We hope this Media Contact List will prove helpful to you in choosing where and how to spend your advertising budget for your event.
