When planning your next corporate event in Kelowna, consider these 3 venues for your offsite activities—they will deliver exceptional experiences that turn into unforgettable memories.
Golf at Gallagher’s Canyon
You can’t beat a day on the golf course, especially when you're surrounded by Kelowna views of forested mountains and rocky bluffs, including the one-of-a-kind Layer Cake Mountain. Gallagher's Canyon Golf and Country Club comprises the championship Canyon Course and the nine-hole Pinnacle Course, allowing novice and expert golfers to enjoy the day. Whether you want to organize a golf tournament as part of your event or simply offer a round as a choice for offsite fun, the team at Gallagher's will make planning and execution a breeze. There is also just over 2,000 sq. ft. of event space onsite, allowing for groups of 150-180, depending on the configuration.
Team Building at Lakehouse Kitchens Cooking School
With some of the Okanagan’s best Chefs leading the charge, planning an offsite event at Lakehouse Kitchens Cooking School will be one for the memory books. The school’s design was inspired by North America's best cooking class facilities, complete with the best high-end equipment available. Team building and corporate events can include hands-on or demonstration cooking classes focusing on locally sourced ingredients, giving your delegates a first-hand taste of Kelowna. Alternatively, some or all of the facility can be rented—perhaps you want to host a catered dinner or have some of your meetings in their theatre or boardroom.
Welcome Reception or Wine Tasting at Grizzli Winery
Located along the Westside Wine Trail, Grizzli Winery’s expansive estate is surrounded by vineyards and neighbouring Mount Boucherie. With one of the largest tasting rooms in Canada and beautiful outdoor space, they can easily accommodate corporate groups of all sizes. The winery boasts award-winning West Coast-style architecture, with 60-foot ceilings, cedar beams, and seating areas perfect for an unforgettable welcome reception or wine tasting. Grizzli also showcases Canadian artists throughout the tasting room, providing more conversation starters for your attendees. The winery’s recently opened 80-seat restaurant, 31 Charkay, can also be booked for private events if a seated dinner is more your style.
