Summer in Salmon Arm brings a unique energy to the Shuswap region each year.

Live Music and Entertainment at ROOTS and BLUES
One of the biggest highlights of the summer is the July Salmon Arm ROOTS and BLUES Festival, which draws visitors from across British Columbia and beyond. The festival has put Salmon Arm on the map with multiple days of music, entertainment, food vendors, and fun.
The event brings people of all ages together to enjoy live performances in a relaxed outdoor setting. Restaurants, shops, parks, and local businesses throughout Salmon Arm also benefit from the increased activity the festival brings to the region each year.
Summer events like the July 24-26 ROOTS and BLUES festival are sure to help create happy memories of Salmon Arm.
A Long-Standing Tradition: The Salmon Arm Fair
Another event many residents look forward to each summer is the Salmon Arm Fair & Parade. The fair continues to be a long-standing tradition in the Shuswap with family entertainment, agriculture exhibits, food vendors, midway rides, live performances, and the popular community parade.
The event on Aug 28-30, 2026 will once again reflect the region’s strong agricultural roots and community spirit. Families gather each year to enjoy everything the Fair offers, including support for local organizations, vendors, and businesses.
Summer Living Around the Shuswap
Beyond festivals and events, Salmon Arm offers endless opportunities to enjoy the outdoors during the summer months. Residents and visitors love to spend time boating, paddleboarding, camping, hiking, cycling, and relaxing near Shuswap Lake while taking advantage of our beautiful scenery and warm water.
