Naramata’s best season might be the one you’ve been missing. 🍂

Naramata Gathers runs October 2–12, and there isn’t one place to be. Dinners, theatre, markets, harvest celebrations and more are happening across the village and the Bench.

So we made the edit.

Swipe for the weekends, the events we’d build a day around, and the little stops we’d slip into in between. We call those Editor’s Detours.

Our one rule: book the anchors, leave the rest alone.

📌 Save this for your weekend.
