7 Celebrations - Reconnecting in the Central Okanagan

With the Central Okanagan warming up, join the Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association for a kick-off to summer event in West Kelowna where we will gather to celebrate the Okanagan community and Indigenous Culture through dance, song, storytelling and art from local artisans. Come out for a day of live music, performances and storytelling, an artisan market, food trucks and kids activities. Some of the performers include the Birch Creek Drum Group, Oots n Oots a family fun band and the headliner, The Prairie State, a country pop rock band.

The Central Okanagan is composed of endless hiking and walking trails, beaches, wine trails, and rich culture. The Sncewips Heritage Museum, located in West Kelowna, is owned and operated by the Westbank First Nation and shares a growing collection of artifacts, histories, and oral stories with the public. Here, one can learn about the history and culture of the syilx People from a syilx perspective. This family friendly event will bring all of the exciting components that make up West Kelowna and the Central Okanagan together to create an unforgettable day of learning, reconnection, and fun.
