This Mother’s Day, we want you to celebrate a little differently.

While we love a beautiful dinner out as much as the next gal, we also know that sometimes, what we look forward to the most are meaningful moments spent together. So what better way to cherish the most important women in your life than with an one-of-a-kind experience taking place across the Okanagan? More than just an event, our #TopPicks for Mother’s Day 2026 include hands-on, bespoke ways to turn one simple day into a lifelong memory.

Check out our limited list for ways to shower your own mom, yourself, or a woman in your life who deserves something a little extra.

Vernon: Opening Weekend at CC Bloom Flower Farm

Mother’s Day is opening weekend at breathtaking CC Bloom Flower Farm, so what better way to celebrate than wandering this floral farm? While there you can even take a look at their upcoming line-up of hands-on workshops set outside in the gardens under their stunning sailcloth tent. Invest in a future mother-daughter date surrounded by lush flowers in full bloom.

Make sure you get your tickets in advance! It’s sure to sell out fast.

Kelowna: Mother’s Day Series “Cooking With Nonna” at Lakehouse Kitchens

Celebrate Mother’s Day this year by gathering in the kitchen and cooking side by side. This is the perfect hands-on class where you’ll both be guided through cherished Italian recipes—think simple, soothing, and rooted in the traditions of generations of women.

The best part? You get to bond as you learn together rolling fresh pasta. There is nothing as heartfelt as sharing a beautiful meal you mastered yourself.

Summerland: Mother’s Day Cocktail Class with Controlled Entropy Distilling

For the ultimate Mother’s Day activity, join Controlled Entropy for an interactive cocktail class. Learn together how to mix up delicious drinks and celebrate the day in style with a cocktail flight of three mini cocktails, professionally catered charcuterie snacks, distillery tour, as well as select discounts on all purchases in-store!

It’s elevated, classy, and educational.

Penticton: Mother’s Day Charm Bar at Poplar Grove

Craft together a meaningful keepsake this Mother’s Day when you stop by Poplar Grove for brunch, wine tasting, and a relaxed atmosphere thanks to the Charm Bar by House of Lyon. You can design a custom necklace or bracelet together, and bring home more than just memories.

Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, but a charm bar is a close second.

Oliver: The Mom Market at the District Wine Village

Free to attend, this quaint Mom Market supports small businesses from as far and wide as Nova Scotia! Treat your mother to a special day out amongst the eight wineries, brewery, distillery, and more while also wandering amongst a showcase of artisan finds.

It’s everything we love about the Okanagan: good wine, local businesses, and sharing a moment with the woman who means the most to you.

Specialty Mother’s Day Brunches Across the Okanagan

Of course, we can’t not discuss the lineup of exceptional brunch offerings from all across our valley. Relaxed and sophisticated, these are a beautiful way to spend a few hours with one another over a delicious meal. Whether you include a mimosa, bubbly, or artisanal coffee, what matters most is that shared memory of brunches past when you worked together in the kitchen to whip up pancakes and waffles. This time, however, it’s a touch more elevated.

Happy Mother’s Day!

Your Okanagan Curators
