Crowds gathered in Okanagan Lake Park Wednesday evening to watch an aerial display.

The Canadian Armed Forces parachute team known as the SkyHawks are preforming at 5 p.m. Then, the Snowbirds took to the sky at 6 p.m.

The Snowbird demonstration kept close to the ground due to the wildfire smoke.

An air show by a CF-18 followed the Snowbirds performance.

The air show is part of Penticton’s annual Peachfest.
