Downtown Kelowna Little Black Book to launch on Black Friday. Downtown Kelowna Association.

The first ever Downtown Kelowna Little Black Book will launch on Black Friday, November 23!

Shop locally from November 23 to December 9 for your holiday gifts at participating Downtown Kelowna shops and eateries and you can enter for a chance to win over $3000 in prizing*.

What’s more, Little Black Book gives holiday shoppers a great opportunity to connect to the local business community on a deeper level. Chat with the business owners about the products and the stories of the people who made them.

During the two-week promotion for each $25 purchase you can collect a sticker. Collect all six (6) stickers and enter your Little Black Book for a chance to win some great prizes. This small purchase does more than just get you one sticker closer to prizes, it also creates a ripple effect of support to local small shops, and ultimately the community where we live.

By participating in Little Black Book during the kickoff to the holiday shopping season, we are all given the opportunity to play our part. Oh, and did we mention there are amazing prizes you can win?

Little Black Book is part of BC Buy Local Week (December 3 – 9), an annual celebration of the unique contributions that BC businesses make to our economy. They strengthen the social fabric and donate to local causes. They provide great jobs, and support local service providers, keeping money circulating in the community. Consumers love local and BC Buy Local Week helps showcase BC local owned businesses, and BC local grown and local made products found in stores everywhere.

So this holiday season, vote with your dollar, pick up at a Little Black Book at participating shops, and support your local retailers this Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday, and every other day thereafter. And, in so doing, help us create the ripples that will have the biggest impacts through the smallest of purchases.

There are limited quantities of our 2018 edition, so get one while you can!

A lifelong performer and passionate music fan, Brad has spent decades on stage delivering high-energy live performances while building a reputation as a tireless promoter and marketing powerhouse within the industry. As a bassist and vocalist, Brad’s love for performing is simple and genuine — he loves to sing, play, and share the experience of live music with audiences. For Brad, live music represents something deeper than entertainment. It’s about connection. The energy exchanged between performers and audiences is what keeps him inspired. “There’s nothing like the energy of live music — from the stage to the seats. When everyone is feeling that same vibe, it’s magic.” — Brad Krauza Over the past three decades, Brad has demonstrated a unique blend of creative vision, compassion, leadership, and strong marketing instincts, helping artists, venues, and events thrive. His work has included concert promotions ranging from local showcases to major international touring acts, including performances featuring artists such as INXS, Randy Travis, Creed, and Anthrax. Beyond performing and promoting, Brad is also the founder and publisher of Gonzo Okanagan, an influential arts, music, and entertainment platform that serves the Okanagan and beyond. Through the platform and its earlier print publication, Gonzo Magazine, Brad has interviewed and featured internationally recognized artists and celebrities including **The Offspring, Nicolas Cage, Drew Barrymore, Steven Spielberg, Angelina Jolie, Adam Sandler, and Martina McBride. Brad’s career has also extended into sales, publishing, marketing, web design, and digital media, all of which complement his lifelong dedication to supporting artists and growing the regional music community. Today, Brad continues to champion live music and creative culture throughout the Okanagan, working to spotlight local artists, promote new music, and bring people together through unforgettable live experiences. His mission remains simple: support the music community, inspire audiences, and keep the spirit of rock & roll alive. “Music is something people need in their lives. If we can help fill people’s cups with great music and positive energy, then we’re doing something right.” Be safe… and let’s ROCK ’N’ ROLL.
