Campfire ban across the Central Okanagan
Campfires will not be allowed in all Central Okanagan municipalities as of 12 p.m. this Wednesday, June 30.
The ban will also cover all Central Okanagan electoral area fire service areas.
Due to extreme temperatures, dry conditions and the high-extreme fire danger rating, the campfire ban will remain in effect until further notice.
The campfire ban affects all local government fire jurisdictions in the Regional District of Central Okanagan including the City of West Kelowna, District of Lake Country, District of Peachland, Westbank First Nation and the Ellison, Joe Rich, North Westside and Wilson’s Landing service areas in the Central Okanagan East and West Electoral Areas. Campfires are not permitted at any time within the City of Kelowna.
