This page lists 4 social clubs in Kelowna that meet on a repeating schedule. Each listing links to the group's own page for joining details.
Are Kelowna social clubs free to join?
Costs and joining rules vary. Check each group's own page for fees, registration and membership requirements before you go.
Which parts of Kelowna do these social clubs meet in?
The listings on this page name Mission and Downtown. The rest rotate venues or do not publish a fixed location, so check the group's own page before you go.
Do I need the Culdesac app to join Kelowna social clubs?
No. This page is free to browse and every group links out to wherever it already organises. The app matters once a group runs its own chat and calendar on Culdesac.
