Mile High Wine & Music Festival, August 10-11, 2018

Welcome back to Mile High Wine & Music presented by Valley First, 5280 feet above sea level and only at SilverStar Mountain Resort. The Okanagan Wine Festivals and SilverStar are proud to bring back Canada’s highest outdoor wine tasting - with 30 different British Columbia wineries, wine pairings and live music to entertain you. 

Being a mile high above sea level heightens your senses - Experience exquisite wines and food amongst friends with live music while enjoying the serenity of being on a mountain away from the city and in touch with nature.

Summer in the Okanagan is renowned for its warmth, outdoor activities, longer days, and wineries. Add the spectacular views of the surrounding valleys and lakes that SilverStar Mountain Resort has to offer and you have yourself a one of a kind summer evening! Not only will you learn how these Okanagan wines are produced, but you will have a chance to sample them and discuss as well. Welcome to the Mile High Wine & Music Festival.

Gallery Odin is happy to announce that for the 15 th time in the history of the gallery we are setting up an Art Exhibition and Sale for the Silver Star Wine Festival.

This year the show will be on the North side of the board walk in Isidore Bourgeaud’s  Swiss Restaurant. It will feature original art by Okanagan artist: oil, acrylic, mixed media paintings and sculptures and open Saturday.
