Netflix In Your Neighbourhood Features Okanagan Tourism Businesses
Frequency Winery was one Okanagan business featured in the Netflix show Restaurants on the Edge.
Netflix is launching a new website — Netflix in Your Neighbourhood — to make it easier for fans, both local and from around the world, to find and explore amazing Netflix filming locations that all have one thing in common: Canada.
Netflix in Your Neighbourhood provides a window into some of the Canadian cities and towns that have enriched films and series, and captivated audiences worldwide. Visitors can search filming locations by a film or series title, or by province. Fans can also access directions to these destinations, and see how they’ve been featured on Netflix.
Netflix has filmed hundreds of productions across Canada and the site will feature some current highlights, as well as select new titles, once they are released.
Several productions were filmed in the Okanagan, benefiting communities by creating jobs and investments in local businesses while also creating a desire among our members to visit the area and learn more about the place, food, wilderness, and culture.
Thompson Okanagan filming locations listed include businesses featured on the show, Restaurants on the Edge, filmed in Vernon and Kelowna:
The Outboard Waterfront Pub
Okanagan Spirits Craft Distillery
Okanagan Lake

A recent study shows that Netflix audiences are 1.8x more likely to have seen Canadian content than those who don’t watch Netflix. And people who have watched Canadian content are 2.1x more likely to say Canada is their #1 travel destination.
