Festivals Kelowna We produce free, outdoor events in Kelowna : Parks Alive!, Celebrate Canada Day, Pianos in Parks, Arts on the Avenue, & New York New Years

Festivals Kelowna is a non-profit society that produces free outdoor programs and events. Our VISION - Connecting our community through festivals and events. We produce Parks Alive!, the Kelowna Buskers Program, the Celebrate Canada Day – Kelowna festivities, and New York New Year's Eve family celebration. We also present Buskers on Bernard in mid-August, a showcase of our Kelowna Buskers Program.

In 2015 we introduced 2 new cool programs including Pianos in the Parks, a public pianos initiative, and Arts on the Avenue, a visual arts festival. We proudly work with the City of Kelowna, our major funder and a key supporter of community-focused, accessible, cultural festivals and events to animate our parks and public spaces.

🎹 Well... it's finally happening.

Our colourful Pianos in Parks are getting ready to head out into the community next week, bringing a little music, art, and unexpected joy to outdoor spaces across Kelowna.

A huge thank you to our amazing sponsors for helping make this program possible. Their generosity helps transform retired pianos into works of art that everyone can enjoy.

And because piano set-up day should never be boring, we may have a little musical treat planned 👀

Check back here next week for all the details 🎹

Ten days ago, we let you know that we had some extra special fun coming your way this summer. Today you get to find out what that fun is!

With the support of Creative BC we were able to create the 'Connection Series', featuring 6 artists from all around BC. We will be 'introducing' you to these fantastic artists in the coming weeks. :D

Not only that, but Arts on the Avenue is coming up quickly, on July 31. Be sure to follow the Arts on the Avenue page to stay in the loop.

One of the best parts of being downtown is the incredible community of neighbours we have surrounding us. AesthetiKs LAB was one of those neighbours. That's why it's heavy on our hearts today that we are saying goodbye to AesthetiKs LAB, who announced its closing this morning.

To the owner, staff, and volunteers: thank you for your creativity, passion, hard work, and for being an amazing community partner. You built a space to bring people together and invite creativity, that is something to be incredibly proud of.

Thank you for everything you've done. Your sparkle will be missed.
