Osoyoos Events — Lake, Desert and Wine Country

Osoyoos is the Okanagan's southern gateway, right at the U.S. border, with one of Canada's hottest and driest climates and Osoyoos Lake at its centre. Its events lean towards arts, entertainment and wine: the Osoyoos Museum runs workshops, trivia nights and "class and a glass" evenings; resorts such as Spirit Ridge, the Osoyoos Golf Club and local pubs host seasonal events; and nearby wineries add tastings and special dinners. Larger touring shows play at the Venables Theatre in Oliver, a short drive north.

What kinds of events happen in Osoyoos?

Arts, workshops and community events

The museum and the Osoyoos Regional Library are the heart of the community calendar, with craft workshops, trivia, kids' programs and heritage talks. See Osoyoos events this week.

Wine and entertainment

Wine is a core part of the Osoyoos calendar, from Nk'Mip Cellars — North America's first Indigenous-owned winery — to family-run estates on the east and west benches. See Osoyoos wineries. Live music and karaoke nights run at local pubs and resorts.

Golf, sports and outdoors

The Osoyoos Golf Club hosts tournaments and charity events, and the warm lake makes summer the main outdoor season. See things to do in Osoyoos for beaches, the desert, and attractions.

Osoyoos events through the seasons

Summer is peak season for the lake and outdoor events. Spring and fall are the prime times for wine events and golf, with milder temperatures. Winter is quiet, with events moving indoors to the museum, library and local venues.
