The Waterfront Island Stage will soon be demolished. 

Construction will start on Sept. 23, on the demolition of the existing stage structure, infill of a portion of the lagoon and construction of a new stage, canopy and electrical upgrades. 

With a completion date of spring 2025, the new stage will host local events, festivals and programs in the park. 

Some Waterfront Park pathways will be closed during construction. 

Temporary closures of the multi-use pathway from Sunset Drive, through Rotary Marsh Park and Concession Plaza will also be required to allow for equipment access, said City of Kelowna staff. 

“Detour routes will be clearly marked and park users are asked to respect safety personnel and signage depicting closures onsite,” staff stated in a release.
