Breakout West

Breakout West is returning to Kelowna! The once-a-year event is sure to be one of the highlights of Kelowna’s cultural calendar in 2023 as musicians, industry professionals, fans, and delegates descend on the city for a 4-day music industry conference, 3-night showcase festival at various downtown Kelowna venues, and the Western Canadian Music Awards.Each year, a different western Canadian host city is selected, and in 2023 it’s Kelowna’s turn. Kelowna has successfully hosted Breakout West on two previous occasions in 2010 and 2018. Both times, the city was buzzing with excitement and sold-out shows.
