Life in the City Gardens Neighbourhood: From Farmers’ Markets to Film Picks May 20, 2026

With the coming summer months just around the corner, June always brings plenty of highly anticipated festivities to Downtown Kamloops. Folks across the city are eager to get out into the community and take advantage of the delights that our city has to offer at this time of year.

Those moving into the brand-new Trillium building at City Gardens are especially lucky, as the fun begins just a short walk away!

Shop Local Goodies at The Farmer’s Market

The perfect way to spend a Saturday morning in the City Gardens neighbourhood is taking a stroll to the Kamloops Regional Farmer’s Market, conveniently located on the 200 block of St. Paul Street. It also provides a great opportunity to meet up with friends and enjoy some sunshine. Be sure to grab an iced latte from the Logjam Coffee Cart, or perhaps a gorgeous loaf of sourdough bread from Horsefeathers Bakery, as you make your way down the block.

An Evening in Support of Community

Royal Affair returns on June 6, bringing one of Kamloops’ most anticipated fundraising evenings back to the city in support of the Royal Inland Hospital Foundation. Known for its secret location, immersive atmosphere, and community spirit, the event runs from 7:00 pm to 1:00 am, with the venue revealed to guests on the day of the event. It is another example of the memorable community experiences that make downtown Kamloops feel active and connected throughout the summer.

Catch a Flick at The Paramount

Avid film fans will feel right at home at City Gardens, as the beloved Paramount Theatre is only two blocks away, on the corner of Victoria Street and 5th Avenue. The Kamloops Film Society strives to offer something for everyone, providing an expertly curated selection of movies every week, including brand-new box-office hits, nostalgic family favourites, and niche deep cuts. The Paramount’s schedule for June’s film picks is coming soon, so stay tuned by keeping an eye on the calendar at thekfs.ca/movies. Pick up a bag of popcorn on your way in, and enjoy the show!

No matter what your interests are, you will never be without something exciting to fill your days with when living in the heart of Downtown Kamloops in a beautiful Trillium suite. In City Gardens, the community is right at your fingertips, just waiting to be discovered.
