In addition to our beautiful lake, stunning vineyards and orchards, Kelowna is also known to throw one heck of a party. With wonderful events happening around the city almost every weekend of the year, it can be hard to choose which one is your favourite to attend.
However, it can’t get much better than hanging out in the park, soaking up the sunshine, jamming to live music or sipping on craft brew and that is why these three events have been voted by you as the best of the best in Kelowna.
Gold: Parks Alive!
A sure sign that summer has arrived, Parks Alive! Is one of Kelowna’s best recurring and seasonal events. Sprawled throughout the city highlighting our beautiful parks, the event brings forth the talent of Kelowna by giving them a platform for their music.
From Kerry Park to Ben Lee Park and everywhere in between, the event fills the city with live music of all genres in a chill, family-friendly atmosphere!
Silver: Rock The Lake
A true time machine, Rock The Lake transports attendees back to the golden days of Rock and Roll. With stellar lineups of Canadian rock bands conquering the stage over three days, RTL is a one-stop shop for all things rock and roll in the Okanagan, and we are lucky enough to be its host city!
Not only can you expect great tunes when you attend, the venue offers up space for you to just hang out on your lawn chair or dance around at the stage all the while indulging in cool drinks, tasty snacks and meeting some incredible people.
Bronze: Great Okanagan Beer Fest
What could possibly be better than basking in the sunshine next to the lake while sipping on craft beers and ciders from over 60 British Columbia breweries? The annual Great Okanagan Beer Fest brings Kelownians an event where they can do just that — oh, and listen to awesome live music.
The main event brings the best of the best in craft brew to one convenient and beautiful spot. With local vendors, food trucks and stellar after parties, GOBF is a staple for craft beer connoisseurs and those who just like to have a good time!
Other nominees: November Project , Earth to Table Vegan Market, Kelowna Hopscotch Festival, Kelowna Pride Festival, Okanagan parkrun, Fat Cat Children's Festival and Center of Gravity.
