About Us

There are two things that cover the Central Okanagan: snow and the Capital News. Having celebrated our 80th anniversary in 2010, the Capital News today publishes three editions a week — Tuesday, Thursday and Friday — with a circulation of 53,000 to homes and businesses in Kelowna and surrounding communities of Peachland, Lake Country and the Westside. The Capital News joined Black Press in 2004.
