Oliver celebrates Canada Day with Free Pancake Breakfast
at the Oliver Community Centre at 8:30 am
Osoyoos will mark the day with the Cherry Fiesta, presented by the Osoyoos Festival Society. The fun includes entertainment, cherry pit spitting, cherry pie eating and craft and food venues.
This is the 65th year of the event in Osoyoos. It coincides with the start of the cherry season in the Okanagan. Back in 1948 names proposed were Cherry Festival and Cherry Carnival. Cherry Carnival won out. (later changed to the Cherry Fiesta to reflect the Town’s Spanish theme).
Cherry Fiesta is a true celebration that creates opportunities for residents, their families, and visitors to Osoyoos to celebrate Canada’s birthday and the pride of calling this great country “our home”.
