2020 Music in the Park - Cancelled
The City of West Kelowna has cancelled the 2020 schedule for Music in the Park to adhere to the restrictions of no large group gatherings as directed by BC’s Provincial Health Officer.
“We are starting to see the restrictions lift on outdoor recreation spaces but the province has made it clear about the importance to adhere to no large group gatherings this summer,” says Mayor Gord Milsom. “We recognize the importance of events like Music in the Park to our sense of community and we will be looking for new ways to bring residents together when it is safe.”

What is Music In The Park?
Enjoy free concerts on most Friday nights in July and August at Annette Beaudreau Amphitheatre in Memorial Park, 3737 Old Okanagan Highway. Enjoy the exceptional talent of Okanagan artists as they perform on stage before a spectacular backdrop of Okanagan Lake and the Monashee Mountains.
Bring your own blanket and maybe an umbrella in the event of light rain, and leave a bit of extra time to find parking. Thank you to Westbank First Nation for permitting use of their lands immediately adjacent to Memorial Park for extra parking. Vendors are located on site for those looking to buy a snack or refreshments at the show.
What If It's Raining?
The concert will still proceed in the event of light rain. In the case of heavy rain, thunderstorm activity or a forest fire burning in the community, the event may be cancelled and a decision will then be made at 6 p.m. on concert day. Otherwise, a little bit of rain or light to moderate smoke from a distant forest fire will have no impact on the event. In the event of cancellation, a notice will be posted on the City of West Kelowna's homepage and its Facebook and Twitter pages.
