West Kelowna’s Annual Westside Daze
Get ready for West Kelowna’s favorite summer tradition! Westside Daze is our spectacular multi-day community celebration, bringing neighbors together for a weekend packed with thrills, music, and memories.

Built by the Community, For the Community
The festival has something for everyone: a high-energy Saturday morning parade through the streets of Westbank, a massive fairground with Shooting Star Amusements, non-stop music and performances at the Annette Beaudreau Amphitheatre, and spectacular Saturday night shows, featuring high-tech drone firework displays.
Operated by the non-profit Westside Celebration Society, Westside Daze is designed to be accessible to everyone, with no gate fees for the main grounds, making it the heart of summer in the Okanagan. We rely on sponsors, volunteers, and other local non-profits to make the festival accessible and fun for everyone.
