More than $10 million has been invested in conservation, stewardship and visitor programs through the BC Parks Licence Plate Program over the past year.

A new report shows more than 87,000 specialty licence plates were purchased between April 2024 and March 2025, bringing total sales to more than 630,000 since launching in 2017.

“British Columbians love their parks, and they’re showing it on the road. Every BC Parks licence plate is a way for people to support the wild places that make our province so special,” said Tamara Davidson, Minister of Environment and Parks.

“Through the licence plate program, we’re investing directly in the care of our parks and protected areas and enhancing the visitor experience. A BC Parks licence plate is a simple way to create lasting benefits for B.C.’s natural spaces.”

The licence plate program is delivered through a partnership between the Province and ICBC.

Drivers can choose from three specialty plate designs featuring scenes from B.C.’s parks and protected areas.

Funding through the program has supported initiatives such as the Student Ranger Program, wildlife inventories, invasive species management, ecosystem restoration and educational programming for children and families.

The program also funded trail improvements in several parks, and public outreach through the BC Parks Foundation’s Discover Parks Program, which connected with nearly 234,000 visitors.

BC Parks says purchasing the specialty licence plates helps support conservation work, partnerships with First Nations, wildfire risk reduction, educational programs and visitor experience improvements throughout the provincial parks system.
