In partnership with the Rossland Incredible Market, we'll be featuring Kootenay artisans, vendors, and food trucks! Plus, a bouncy castle, lawn games, scavenger hunt, and crafts make this the perfect event to enjoy on a September afternoon.

Make this your weekend's main event, or stop by to enjoy our food, music, and artisans before an exciting evening at Between the Peaks music festival.

The festival is an opportunity for our region’s local visual and performing artists to showcase their talents to the public as we celebrate the spectacular culture in our area with live music, artist demos, artisan booths, and more. Entry is free, but donations are always appreciated!
