Kelowna shopping tips:
Boutiques/vintage/art
Downtown Kelowna offers a unique shopping experience amidst the backdrop of the beautiful Waterfront Park and the historic arts and business district. Bernard Avenue is home to dozens of boutiques, including shops like Funktional, where you’ll find an eclectic blend of jewellery, art and home decor crafted by local artists. In addition to retail stores, you’ll find a great mix of galleries, restaurants, pubs and cafes.
Tucked away into a hip little shopping district near the lake is Pandosy Village. Take in the trendy boutiques, cafes and the sun with the college crowd.
