Please note: next year's dates ... it's the 3rd weekend not the second weekend. It is the second Thursday and/or Friday though. The Brier Cup will be hosted in Kamloops so we've decided to go with March 13th to 16th, 2014. Mark your calendars now.


Our mandate to promote and preserve cowboy heriatge in BC was definitely met this year ... starting with a Kamloops City proclamation declaring "BC Cowboy Heritage Week", then a BC Government proclamation declaring "Cowboy Heritage Week", then the Honourable Judith Guichon Lieutenant Governor of British Columbia opened the Festival and to top things off we had a letter / message from the Right Honourable Stephen Harper, Prime Minister of Canada! see the whole story

Information on the BC Cowboy Hall of Fame can be found here: BC Cowboy Hall of Fame and the Archives Page has photos and bios of all the inductees.

We're always looking for nominations for the Joe Marten Memorial Award for the Preservation of Cowboy Heritage in BC. Anyone can make a nomination! Heritage Preservation Award
