SHOW N SHONE CANCELLED DUE TO WILDFIRES: Assessing the possibility of rescheduling 

AUGUST 20, 2023 – Due to the evolving wildfire situation, the Downtown Kelowna Association (DKA) cancelled Show N Shine on Bernard, originally scheduled for Saturday, August 19, 2023. While this was a difficult decision to make, the health and safety of all is of utmost priority.

An announcement to all event participants, sponsors, and vendors has been sent to make them aware of the decision. Refunds for all registration and vendor fees will be made available.

The public is encouraged to follow the direction of emergency services with respect to evacuation alerts and orders.

We thank our sponsors, participants, vendors, and the public for their understanding.

If possible, the event will be rescheduled for a later date.

Please email your questions or concerns to kris@downtownkelowna.com.
