Frequently Asked Questions

Why don't I receive Okanagan Life Magazine for free?

The fact is, we simply cannot deliver the magazine for free to every resident in the Valley. Therefore, we target certain neighbourhoods throughout the Okanagan Valley, primarily in Kelowna, Vernon and Penticton. We also deliver to 11,000 businesses throughout the Valley, so you might find it in your workplace.

But subscribing to Okanagan Life is a great value. Did you know that many of the residents who receive Okanagan Life for free also purchase gift subscriptions for friends and relatives who do not? That's because Okanagan Life is a great read no matter how you get it.
