A Toast to The Success of Craft & Country, Beer & Music Mountain Festival
The festival, held on July 15, 2023, was a sold-out affair that brought together beer and cider enthusiasts and vendors from all parts of the Okanagan and across BC.
"We are extremely proud of the success of this year's event," mentioned Trevor Hanna, Vice President of Hospitality at Big White Ski Resort.
Hanna said the atmosphere was electric throughout the Village, with the folk-rock vibes of local Kelowna band Gary Saturday.
"Our team was impressed with the diverse crowd, relaxing and enjoying everything in the Village. Families and grandparents - it’s special to see everyone enjoying a great afternoon during the summer at Big White."
A heartfelt thank you goes out to all the breweries and cideries that graced the event. Steamworks Brewery, Wards Cider, No Boats on Sunday Cider, Okanagan Spring, Neighbourhood Brewing, Yellow Dog Brewing, Rustic Reel, Absolut & Wisers, BNA Brewing, The Hatching Post, Truck 59 Cider, and Lighthouse Brewing – your participation was instrumental in making this event a hit. The diverse offerings showcase the innovative beverage market that is being created right here in BC.
“We are incredibly grateful for the overwhelming support and enthusiasm from everyone who attended the festival. You brought this annual well-loved event to life.”
