Tourism Kelowna Partners with Okanagan Communities on Co-op Marketing Initiative

Tourism Kelowna, together with the Vernon, Summerland, and Oliver tourism associations, is participating in a Destination BC-funded co-op marketing campaign, created by partnering with Seekers Media and Miss604. The theme and hashtag for this campaign is #OkanaganExploring, creating itineraries in each city/town, which can be used by travellers as a multi-day adventure to explore the Okanagan Valley. 

Part one of the campaign occurred this past spring and proved to be a success, bringing in a total of over 1.1 million impressions and reaching over 725,000 through #OkanaganExploring. 

Here are some highlights from the spring campaign:
