What Is the Hot Beverage Festival?

A city-wide winter festival celebrating everything cozy in a cup.
Explore cafés, restaurants, and bars as they serve signature hot drinks — from teas and lattes to mulled wine and spiked creations.


This isn’t just a tasting tour — it’s a city-wide competition to crown the Best Hot Drink in the Okanagan. Attendees sip, vote, and celebrate the region’s most creative, comforting, and delicious winter sips.
