The 2021 Kelowna Kiwanis Festival is cancelled due to COVID. See our news release for more details.

Considering advice from governments and public health officials, we have made the difficult decision to cancel all remaining events in the 2020 Kelowna Kiwanis Festival. Our Board of Directors continues to meet and we are working on providing refunds. We were able to complete the festival's Dance (Mar. 1-8) and Choral (Mar. 9-10) events, but will be refunding ALL registrations in the following cancelled events: Brass & Woodwinds: Apr. 21-22 Concert Band: Apr. 20-23 Musical Th...eatre: May 5-6 Orchestra & Chamber: Apr. 27 Piano: Apr. 2-7 Speech Arts: May 7 Strings: Apr. 27-30 Voice (Classical): Apr. 25-26 Voice (Popular): May 3-4 Gala Concert: May 29 If you paid the registration fee through PayPal, you will automatically receive your refund through PayPal, which will also generously refund any service fees. If you paid by cheque, you will receive a refund cheque in the mail. Refunds will take some time, as there are a lot of them to process, so we appreciate your patience. We regret that many local amateur performers did not have the unique experience our festival provides to perform, learn and grow this year, but it is more important that we all stay safe at this difficult time. We hope to see you at our 2021 Kelowna Kiwanis Festival, which is already being planned. Meanwhile, as we practise social distancing, may we all enjoy some comfort and worthwhile occupation in our passion for the performing arts.

Just a few short days until we begin our 94th Festival! Our banner is ready to highlight our wonderful sponsors and donors! We could not have done this without your support!
