All Hallows Festival

The Wide Arts National Association (WANA) is pleased to host the 4th Annual All Hallows Festival (AHF) in Osoyoos!

Taking place at Gyro Park in sw̓iw̓s (Osoyoos) on the unceded land of the Syilx Okanagan people in British Columbia, All Hallows Festival was conceived by Wide Arts National Association (WANA) with the mission to create and deliver a wide array of arts and cultural experiences.

All Hallows Festival celebrates the South Okanagan’s diverse bounty of local artists in a progressive, family-friendly halloween harvest-style event. This accessible, by-donation community festival, creates magical opportunities of cultural exchange through exciting, participatory performances by local artists.

With the unwavering support of The Town of Osoyoos, Destination Osoyoos, local sponsors, the event attracts a public of over 3500 people.

Festival-goers participate in collective dance and circus-based activities; have their fortunes told by Tarot card readers; compete in costume contests; witness thrilling acts such as fire breathing, belly dancing, sword swallowing and world-class aerial acrobatics; laugh as witches take to paddleboards for the ‘Witches on the Water’ showcase; before ending a jam-packed day with a dance party––All Hallows is far from your average ‘sit-down and watch’ festival.

With its diverse local line-up, accessible hands-on activities guided by local artists fueled with community vision, All Hallows is the perfect example of how to reinvent the heritage harvest festival into a forward-thinking family event. One which attracts new visitors to our community, engages repeat visitors and adds immeasurable value to the lives and businesses of the Osoyoos community.
