It’s a festival of experiences!

There is so much happening in Downtown Kamloops that we had to give it a name! The Festival of Experiences runs all year long.

Lights in the Night

Downtown Kamloops is home to nearly 6500 residents, and we have more than 10,000 people who come into the downtown core on a daily basis for myriad reasons. They are shoppers and workers, visitors and vacationers.

They come for the experiences, the services we provide, the wonderfully unique shops and restaurants, our arts scene and much more. Time and time again, Downtown Kamloops has been touted for being the most absolutely friendly neighbourhood, a characteristic that is not easy to forget.

The Lights in the Night Christmas Party is sure to impress this year. Starting at 4pm on November 24, downtown merchants and restaurants come together to throw parties, amazing sales, host seasonal activities and give away samples and goodies! It is also home to our In It To Win It gigantic live prizing giveaway.

Merchants up and down the street will be lighting up their windows with fantastic holiday displays to compliment the Kamloops Arts Council’s Lumiere Parade, which strolls to the beautiful Christmas Tree Light-up at St. Andrews on the Square.

Our Festival of Experiences includes all of these great events as well as many experiences and programs. Find an up to date lineup of events and activites at downtownkamloops.com.

Shopping

Maintaining values Main Street Clothing is celebrating its 17th year of business! The stores owner, Nicki James, aspires to be a mentor for her daughters who are learning the ropes of running the institution that is Main Street. “This is a family business,” explains Nicki, making Main Street a true legacy.

Something that is important to Nicki is to maintain the values which her store holds. “I always tell the girls, at the end of the day selling is your job… but if you do your job right you’re not selling, you’re taking care of your customer and the rest is just a bonus.”

Downtown Kamloops’ collection of back alley murals has become an attractant for tourists and locals alike. The project which was started as a deterrent to graffiti in our back alleyways has blossomed into a full fledged gallery featuring 22 large scale pieces of artwork that adorn the alleyways.

People from all walks of life stop by to admire the artwork. Use the map on the next page to follow the downtown art trail.

Brothers in business Fratelli Foods, a go-to grocer for Kamloops locals, on the 200 Block of Victoria Street, loves Downtown Kamloops as much as we love them! Mario and his brother, Peter, coown the store and the word Fratelli translates from Italian to mean, you guessed it, brother!

“We are set apart from other grocers not only because of our service but unique products available only at Fratelli’s,” says Mario. “A mix of hard work, perseverance, and finding out exactly what the neighborhood needs and loves has been our key to success.” With mouth-watering deluxe sandwiches adjusted to the customer’s delight, weekly authentic Indian cuisine, homemade soups and more, Fratelli’s has gone above and beyond when it comes to catering to the needs of the customer!

I’ve been making it work for about 17 or 18 years since, right smack here in this location.” Desert Hemp Hut owner Lois Petch loves the products that she carries and she loves the community which she can sell it within. “I absolutely love downtown and wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.

Where to stay

A Kamloops icon Since 1928, The Plaza Hotel has remained a Kamloops icon.

Located at the corner of 4th and Victoria Street, The Plaza is the oldest hotel in town. Today the hotel’s General Manager, Shatha Al-Reihani, oversees all departments from housekeeping to the hotel’s five–star steak house, The Fireside Steakhouse & Bar. Shatha and her staff believe in going the extra mile. “From the moment guests step in to the moment they step out, we are looking after them. We take care of them.”

At Karin’s Fashions, one thing is certain — store owner, Karin, knows fashion. From personalizing the clothes her store sells to the ambiance it makes customers feel through service and the overall environment, the store is a local jewel downtown — and for good reason!

Making the responsible and sustainable choice.

RiverFresh is a delicious rare find making a big splash in Kamloops by providing the only locally caught salmon products in the region.

Our local sockeye and chinook salmon products include fillets, portions, steaks, and various ready to eat smoked and candied products including retort pouches - a healthy alternative to canned salmon. The pouches contain smoked salmon with less preservatives and more nutritional value. The local Secwepemc coyote legends and authentic art work on each package make them ideal as a gift for family and friends.

We are proud to announce a partnership with Haida Wild and Simply West Coast. We now carry other seafoods from Haida Gwaii such as halibut, ling cod, sablefish, smoked sablefish, support prawns and tuna. We also have award winning Simply local West Coast soups, sausages, bacon, and seafood pizza.

Find us at our newly renovated retail store at 680 Athabasca Street West near the Red Bridge open from Monday-Friday 8:30am-4:30pm. Or stop by the weekly Kamloops Regional Farmers’ Market where we manage a busy sales booth every Wednesday & Saturday Morning from April to October.
