Just because it happened for no reason doesn鈥檛 mean it was all for nothing.
That鈥檚 one way to describe the Ignite the Arts Festival in Penticton on Friday, March 31, when several dozens took to the downtown streets for an evening of song, dance and celebration during the 鈥淧arade For No Reason.鈥�
The Western News鈥� Brennan Phillips captured all the action, with the second annual festival kicking off its final weekend of events in 2023.
The fun started at 6 p.m., by the Elk鈥檚 Hall parking lot on Ellis Street.
Brass musicians, local artists and even a fire-spinning routine headlined the parade鈥檚 downtown festivities.
The Ignite the Arts Festival wraps up Sunday, April 2, with both free and ticketed events.
All of the scheduled fun can be viewed on the festival鈥檚 website.
Friday鈥檚 parade, like many of the scheduled events during the festival, was free of admission.
The festival celebrated its inaugural year in 2022.
This year鈥檚 edition of Ignite the Arts kicked off March 24.
