Rock the night away at Music in the Park

Date of Issue: Tuesday, Aug. 5, 2025

Join us at Music in the Park for an unforgettable night of live Canadian rock this Friday, Aug. 8!

Opening the night is Texas Major, a powerhouse Kelowna-based duo known for gritty riffs, big drums, and explosive live energy. Since forming in 2023, they’ve sold out local shows and have shared the stage with legends like Tom Cochrane and 54.40.

Then, The Hip Replacements take over with a spot-on tribute to The Tragically Hip, capturing the iconic sound, storytelling, and raw stage presence of Gord Downie that fans know and love.

Don’t miss this electric night of music under the West Kelowna sky!

This free, family-friendly event takes place Friday nights at the scenic Annette Beaudreau Amphitheatre at Memorial Park, located at 3737 Old Okanagan Highway.
