For more than three decades, this iconic event has been a cherished summer tradition, drawing thousands of residents and visitors to Riverside Park to enjoy warm evenings, community spirit, and exceptional entertainment.
Music in the Park is renowned for its free evening performances throughout July and August, offering residents and tourists an opportunity to enjoy a wide array of musical talent. These performances, suitable for family members of all ages, feature a diverse lineup of artists from Kamloops and across North America, ensuring there's something for everyone to enjoy.
As planning for 2026 begins, the City of Kamloops is now accepting applications from performers and mobile food vendors:
