Sounds Gay, I'm in!
It's Pride in the Park tonite folks! One of our best events all summer, with a whole night of performances and music - the park is going to be the best place to be in the city tonite! It's a gay ole time, but everyone is welcome, and all performances will be all-ages appropriate and more or less just a great display of amazing costume work & choreography... The night even goes a little longer than usual, the market runs till 8, but the music goes till 9... so come celebrate d

Bike Market
Hey folks, to help kick off Go By Bike Week, the Bike Market is back, along with the annual Beach Themed Bike Parade (maybe its time for a more clever name for that one)... Join us in the park tonite for some great vendors, food trucks, and a free bike valet (no need to drive if you live in town). Congrats to our winners of the bike giveaways this week as well! We gave away 2 freshly-refurbished used bikes on instagram and facebook this week. This helps to keep older bikes up

Exciting Night at the Artisan Market with Science!
Our first ever event co-hosting with the Okanagan Science Centre is tonite! They may have had to cancel their other Mind Blown Festival events because of a fire last week ๐, but they're still hanging out with us and bringing activities to the park tonite. We've got a great lineup of vendors and food trucks for you tonite as well - we're always a great stop for dinner on a friday night, and for thoughtful gifts (you'll be an all-star gift giver, shopping here). Here's the foo

It's 2026 and we're back!
I mean, it's not a surprise that it's 2026, it has been for 5 months so far, but it's the start of a new season and the best part of the year for us - we get to hang out in the park every week again and invite you all to join! We have a summer jam-packed (maybe even with some jam vendors) with themes and special guests every week. It took a lot of planning and some extra work, but everyone loves our themed nights, so we went extra hard this year. Here's what we're planning fo

Two Great Holiday Events Coming!
Funny thought, do you know how much consideration and strategy I put into picking dates for holiday markets? Can't be too early (folks aren't in the mindset yet), can't be too late (the mindset shifts to just filling the gaps with less meaningful gifts)... it's a real goldilocks moment to make sure I get the best in locally made goods in front of the town at the right moment so both sides can come together harmoniously. Then, because it's what I get excited about, I layer it
