It's all about family fun
Family Day Weekend in Kelowna
Nothing says family fun like cruising down the slopes at Big White Ski Resort, seeking out the best hot chocolate in downtown Kelowna, or skating lakeside along Okanagan Lake. Stay in Kelowna to enjoy all the city has to offer, including hotels with waterslides, your kids' favourite restaurants, and indoor children activities (so parents can have a bit of quiet time).
Most area wineries are open during the winter and are within easy reach, while Big White is about an hour's drive from downtown Kelowna, making it easy for both kids and adults to have a fun Family Day getaway.
