The night
Before you go
Kelowna Community Theatre, 1375 Water Street. Something is fitting about a Christmas show rooted in the mountains finding its way back to the Okanagan. A Rocky Mountain High Christmas returns to Kelowna for a special matinee performance on Saturday, November 14, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. One afternoon, one stage, and the music that has moved audiences to their feet from coast to coast. Fresh off sold-out performances across Canada, this beloved concert event comes home to where it all began. Kelowna's own Rick Worrall, the creator and producer behind the show, takes the stage alongside his brother Steve Worrall with special guests Delphine Litke, Chad Abrahamson and Glen Rosa Middle School Choir, backed by a hand-picked Canadian all-star band and a symphony ensemble that brings the full, sweeping sound of the arrangements to life. What sets A Rocky Mountain High Christmas apart is what it doesn't do. It doesn't impersonate. It doesn't imitate. Instead, it honours the enduring spirit of John Denver — his warmth, his wonder, and his uncanny ability to make a song feel like home through live performance and heartfelt storytelling. The show's lush orchestrations come courtesy of Lee Holdridge, Denver's long-time friend and Emmy Award-winning conductor, lending the evening an authenticity that no tribute act can replicate. The result is a matinee that feels less like a concert and more like a gathering of family, of memory, and of the kind of music that doesn't age. For Okanagan audience
