Flashbacks Nightclub closing after 27 years in Kelowna

KELOWNA – One of Kelowna’s oldest nightclubs has announced this weekend will be their last.

The team at Flashbacks on Ellis Street announced on their Facebook page their final show would take place this Friday, May 27. Even a renovation was not enough to keep the doors open.

“We chose to close not for any specific reason, but a combination of factors and the management team has decided that it would be best to leave on a high note, on our own terms,” they say on their Facebook page. “For 27 years of parties, concerts, stags, and shows we want to thank you so much! Please join us for one last night this FRIDAY and SATURDAY to send off Flashbacks in style.”

Their final show will feature Chingy this Friday, May 27 with the last goodbye party happening May 28.
