Municipal Candidates Meet & Greet Night (Sept 27, 2026)
Advertisement
Join the North Okanagan Labour Council on the evening of Sunday September 27 for an opportunity to connect with municipal candidates running for city council, regional district, and school district positions in the Kelowna and surrounding area.
For the Public: Free Admission
Doors will open at 6pm and there is no need to register in advance. To provide you the most free time to connect with your candidates, programming for the evening is informal with a brief welcome from our President Rob Austin. Rotating Candidate spotlights will occur every 5 to 10 minutes throughout the evening giving candidates a few moments to deliver short prepared speeches at their tables. The schedule of the spotlights will be in your program. The majority of the evening outside of that will be self-directed by participants with plenty of opportunity to talk to who they wish! Light snacks and refreshments will be available. Please note the venue is wheelchair accessible and parking is sometimes limited downtown. Lastly, given the indoor space we ask that participants refrain from wearing scents or fragrances.
*Media advisory: Participants are hereby notified that photos/video may be taken and all media outlets are welcome to attend.*
Candidates - You can arrive to the event up to 1 hour early (5pm) to set up your table as you wish and to get yourself situated. Please allow our ushers to show you to your table and get you anything you require, or that would make you more comfortable. Please email us any special requests in advance.
REGISTRATION FOR CANDIDATES: Please register below by Friday September 18, 2026. We will do our best to find space for late registrants but cannot guarantee a table will still be available.
