If you're like many other people in Kelowna, to you, the weekend is all about enjoying the city at your own leisurely pace. Maybe you’ll head to a new to you local restaurant, support our small business owners or check out a fun community event. No matter what you may get up to, Kelowna always has something fun to do on your days off.

If you want to get out and about this weekend but aren't sure where to start, here is a list of great things we think you should check out on your weekend excursions.

If the downtown area seems busier than usual this weekend it’s because C.O.G is returning this weekend for its 10th anniversary. With epic sports and a killer line-up, this beach festival is a must-attend event. Tickets are still available online for the 3-day event, so don’t miss out on seeing Snoop Dogg and Marshmello.
