November 11 2026 - The full Coldstream Remembrance Day ceremony is available to watch below. The video covers the entire service at Coldstream Cenotaph Park and the gathering afterward at the Fire Hall.
Approximately 600 people of all ages attended yesterday’s ceremony under clear fall skies. Veterans, RCMP members, Coldstream Volunteer Fire Department personnel, Vernon Search and Rescue volunteers, and many community groups were present throughout the service.
The program included O Canada, messages from local officials, Last Post, two minutes of silence, Reveille, laying of wreaths, the Act of Remembrance, and performances by the Vernon Community Singers.
An Okanagan Dove Release marked one of the quieter moments. After the formal ceremony, attendees moved to the Coldstream Fire Hall for hot chocolate and refreshments.
