Anchored in a bright, contemporary design, the updated site mirrors the dynamic character of Kelowna itself. From its natural beauty to its buzzing cultural and culinary scenes, the design brings the spirit of the city to life online—vibrant, fresh, and full of possibilities.
New Layouts for Dynamic Storytelling
With an expanded collection of layout and design options, the new site allows for richer, more flexible storytelling. It gives Tourism Kelowna and its partners a dynamic canvas to showcase experiences—from vineyard strolls and lakeside dining to festival highlights and local maker features.

The site is also fully optimized for mobile, ensuring a smooth, beautiful experience across all devices.
Immersive Visuals and Accessibility Upgrades
Bold, high-resolution visuals now play a starring role—drawing visitors in with sweeping valley views, vibrant downtown shots, and mouth-watering cuisine. The enhanced accessibility features ensure that all users, regardless of ability, can explore and enjoy the content with ease.
