Unfortunately there aren't any *official* forums for QB64; but with that said there are several forums available that may be of interest.
Although following sites host forums that cater to many dialects of BASIC, each of them have an area dedicated specifically for QB64.

- [Friends of Basic](https://friends-of-basic.freeforums.net/board/6/qb64)
