The free entertainment will take place from 12:15 to 4:15 p.m. and will include Sista  and the Boyz, Pam Ferens, Clinton W. Gray and Leif David. The Kids Day is held in Johnson Bentley Memorial Park, free parking is behind A&W. The fair wraps up with a draw for a girls and a boys bike.

The annual Westside Daze Parade starts at 10:30 a.m. and will see lots of entries including floats, horses, cars, bands and service clubs marching the parade route, which starts behind Zellers off Old Okanagan Highway and ends on Butt Road.
