The annual Dine Around Thompson Okanagan is about to take place and it is one of the best times to get out and enjoy our local restaurants.

Holiday shopping have you ready to relax this Christmas Eve? Decided not to cook a big meal for Christmas Day?

Kelowna is well known for beaches, fresh fruit, wineries, golf, lake life and PATIOS!

Nearby Kelowna offers every vacation retreat imaginable, all within a 7-hour drive from Calgary, 4-hour drive from Vancouver or 1-hour flight.

It’s officially spring – and that means it’s time to plan your family vacation.

Travelling to Kelowna and searching for the ideal accommodations for your family? Whether you are looking for a centrally-located hotel or something off the beaten path, here are a handful of options to suit your needs.

Whether you’ve just completed a fabulous dinner and want to cap it off with a sweet treat, or you're on the hunt for the perfect chocolate pie, whatever your craving, these restaurants have it. But be warned, you won’t want to share.

My ultimate winter weekend in Kelowna combines a few things I love – warm drinks, quiet solitude in the forest, and adventure. The great thing is that you can do these activities with a friend or solo. You can even do them with kids!

In the summer, we all love to escape indoor spaces and enjoy the fresh air and warm sunshine. Sitting down with a glass of Okanagan wine enhances that experience. Visit one of these friendly establishments and heighten the occasion with the company of good friends—or the opportunity to make new ones.

Your best friend has decided to tie the knot and you’ve gleefully agreed to be her Maid of Honour. Now you’ve got a bachelorette to plan and you want the event to be something she’ll never forget.
