The 2nd Annual Hits for Heritage Fundraiser is not just a concert—it’s a celebration of community, culture, and legacy! Featuring Trooper, one of Canada’s legendary rock bands, this night at the Kelowna Community Theatre promises high energy, nostalgia, and a powerful purpose.All proceeds support the Central Okanagan Heritage Society’s mission to preserve and promote the region’s rich history through Conservation, Collaboration, Advocacy and Education for the benefit of current and future generations.
Our community collaborations and sponsorships for this event shows how deeply rooted Heritage is in the heart of Kelowna. Thank you to the Downtown Kelowna Association, Lakeview Market, Canada West Realty, Castanet, Coast Hotels, 103.1 Beach Radio, OV 103.9 That 70s Station, Kelowna Community Theatre and the City of Kelowna.
It goes like this: millions of records, a couple dozen hits, a Juno Award (Canada's Grammy) for Band of the Year and ongoing sold-out shows across Canada. Universal Music acknowledges them as "one of Canada's top five selling bands of all time" and the Vancouver Sun has called them "Canadian rock heroes of the first order ... the best performing band in Canada". In 2023 they were inducted into both the Canadian Music Hall of Fame and Canada's Walk of Fame. Then, as now, what makes Trooper what they are is great performances and great pop songwriting.
"We're Here for a Good Time (Not a Long Time)", "Raise a Little Hell", "The Boys in the Bright White Sportscar", "Two For the Show", "Pretty Lady" "Good Ol' General Hand Grenade", "Round, Round We Go", "Santa Maria", "Janine" - just a few of the Trooper hits that, according to writer Ryan Sparks, "have woven their way into the fabric of this country like no other bands have been able to do. Tune into any radio station from Vancouver to St John's and you're bound to encounter one of their dozen hit radio anthems that are still featured in heavy rotation to this day."
It's no exaggeration to say that Trooper has become a Canadian legend. They continue to perform their huge collection of hits with the vitality and sense of humor that has served them well on their steady march through the hills and valleys of Canadian Rock and Roll.
