The Interior Provincial Exhibition (IPE) in Armstrong, British Columbia, is a beloved five-day agricultural fair and rodeo with over 125 years of community tradition, held each year in early September. The event brings together livestock competitions, agricultural exhibits, 4-H displays, local vendors, and interactive experiences such as cow milking, gold panning, and lumberjack shows. A family-oriented fun zone offers rides and children's attractions, while daily rodeo performances, live music, barn dances, and a festive Sunday parade provide entertainment for all ages. The IPE celebrates the agricultural heritage and close-knit community spirit of the North Okanagan region, making it a must-visit annual destination for families and visitors from across British Columbia.
