About
Penticton, located in the heart of wine country, in the south central interior of Canada’s western-most province, beautiful British Columbia. We are one of two cities in the world between two lakes; Okanagan Lake and Skaha Lake.
We offer more than 100,000 sq. ft. of combined convention, meeting and exhibit space. Including the Penticton Trade & Convention Centre, the largest dedicated, full service convention centre in BC’s Interior and the stunning, luxurious Penticton Lakeside Resort & Conference Centre at the shore of Okanagan Lake.
With many unique indoor and open air venues in a variety of sizes and locations from a dedicated wine village, to craft breweries to a docked heritage paddle wheeler, off-site activity options are endless. A four season destination; guided wine, cannabis and nature tours, golf, cycling/E-Bike tours, downhill and cross-country skiing and even an open air skating rink to rent are just a few of the choices. Penticton is the perfect destination for memorable, impactful events.
Penticton is home to more than 200 regional wineries, 8 craft breweries, 3 distilleries and over 30 annual festivals all enveloped by 2 pristine lakes, 5 beaches, an extensive trail network and scenic mountain views. The climate is temperate with four distinctive seasons and typically an extensive spring and fall.
Fuel Free…Almost. The natural landscape surrounding our compact, walkable city fosters a cozy community feel with all the amenities of a larger metropolis. Conventions and conference facilities, accommodations, downtown and most off-site venues are all within walking distance.
From the Interior Salish word SnPink’tn, the name Penticton, is commonly translated as “a place to stay forever”, or more accurately “a place where people live year-round. For over 7,000 years, our region has been home to the Sylix First Peoples.
