Summary
The best coworking spaces and shared offices in Kelowna, with published day-pass and membership prices where operators list them, and parking notes.
In this article:
The best coworking spaces in Kelowna are Spaces Innovation Centre for a corporate downtown desk, Pulse Co-Working for parents and Staples Studio for free parking north of downtown, with Big Bear Innovation Centre the option on the Westside. This guide covers eight places to work, from shared offices and a tech incubator to the free downtown library, plus cafes, with addresses, parking notes, published prices and who each one suits.
Most Kelowna operators don't publish day-pass prices on their own websites; the price column below shows only what each operator lists itself, and "Not published" means ask for a quote. Okanagan coLab, long the city's community coworking space at 1405 St. Paul Street, is no longer listed: the City of Kelowna ordered its building closed after damage from neighbouring construction, and its website is no longer active.
| Space | Area | Parking | Day pass / membership | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Spaces Innovation Centre | Downtown | Paid parkade | Quoted online by Regus | Corporate desk, fast internet |
| Pulse Co-Working | Downtown (Leon Ave) | Avoid the street | Boardrooms from $35/hour | Parents (daycare on site) |
| Regus Landmark | Landmark District | Parkades | Quoted online by Regus | Client-facing professionals |
| Staples Studio | Hwy 97 N | Free lot | Not published | Rutland and Black Mountain residents |
| Big Bear Innovation Centre | Westbank | Free | Not published | Westside residents |
| Kelowna Offices | Downtown and Landmark | Not listed | Not published (lease) | Private, lockable offices |
| Accelerate Okanagan | Downtown | Not listed | Desks from $350/month (AO members) | Tech founders |
| Okanagan Regional Library | Downtown | Library Parkade, $1.50/hr weekdays | Free | Free, quiet work |
Corporate Downtown Coworking
Spaces Innovation Centre
460 Doyle Ave | Contact for current pricing
Spaces Innovation Centre is the corporate option, in the large glass building downtown near the lake, with very fast internet and a rooftop patio that gets heavy use in summer. It's owned by Regus, so expect standard furniture, strict rules, and a heads-down rather than social atmosphere.
The catch: downtown parking is difficult. Unless you live in the North End and can walk or bike, budget for daily parkade rates on top of the desk fee.
Coworking with Daycare
Pulse Co-Working
540 Leon Avenue | Boardrooms from $35 an hour; contact for desk pricing
Pulse Co-Working, now branded Pulse City Club, is the option for parents, paired with a daycare, ProducKIDvity, in the same building: children go to the daycare downstairs while parents work upstairs. ProducKIDvity's website says Kids & Co. takes over that centre on November 2, 2026. Given how hard childcare is to find in Kelowna, the setup is a real advantage. The space is clean and modern, with reasonably priced hot desks for downtown, private phone booths and a large boardroom.
The catch: Leon Avenue is the centre of downtown's street issues. Avoid parking on the street if possible, and take care walking to your car after dark in winter, when the sun sets around 4 PM.
Executive Offices
Regus Landmark
1631 Dickson Avenue | Contact for current pricing
Regus Landmark is an executive office space on the 11th floor of Landmark 6, one of the towers off Highway 97 near the Parkinson Rec Centre, with views of the lake and mountains. It suits lawyers, financial advisors and others whose clients expect a polished, professional setting.
The catch: day passes are expensive and the atmosphere is formal. Parking is easier than downtown, via the parkades and the skybridge.
Coworking at Staples
Staples Studio
2339 Hwy 97 N | Contact for current pricing
Staples Studio is a coworking space at the back of the Staples near the Costco and the highway, and the practical choice for anyone in Rutland or Black Mountain, where driving downtown takes 30 minutes each way. It has a large free parking lot, big desks, ergonomic chairs and a fully soundproofed podcasting booth for hourly rent. Staples describes memberships ranging from a drop-in day pass to monthly private offices, but doesn't publish prices.
The catch: it's purely functional, with no natural light and little community.
Is There Coworking in West Kelowna?
Big Bear Innovation Centre
1979 Old Okanagan Highway, Westbank | Price on request
Big Bear Innovation Centre is the only dedicated coworking space on the Westside, right off the highway in Westbank. It removes the bridge from the commute, which matters: tourist traffic makes July crossings slow, and a single accident can turn a 15-minute drive into two hours. It offers free parking, fast internet, daily drop-ins, dedicated desks and private offices. Rates and hours aren't published online, so call ahead to confirm availability before you drive over.
The catch: it's small and very quiet, with little networking. It suits focused work rather than meeting people.
Private Offices
Kelowna Offices
1455 Ellis Street & 1715 Dickson Ave | Contact for pricing
Kelowna Offices rents private, lockable offices in two locations: downtown on Ellis, near the lake and restaurants, and in the Landmark District, near the larger corporate firms. It suits therapists, accountants, and anyone who needs a private room and a real business mailing address.
The catch: these usually require a proper lease, so they're not suited to occasional use.
The Tech Incubator
Accelerate Okanagan
460 Doyle Ave, Suite 201 | Dedicated desks from $350/month for AO members; meeting rooms at flexible rates
Accelerate Okanagan is a tech incubator on the second floor of the Innovation Centre, and the leading support organization for software and hardware startups in the Okanagan. Its core programs are for tech companies and give founders access to mentors, capital and peers; it also rents meeting rooms and dedicated desks through OKGN Works, the shared workspace on the same floor. Its workspace page lists dedicated desks from $350 a month for AO members.
The catch: the programs and mentorship are built for tech founders. Freelancers and remote employees in other fields will get less from it.
Where Can You Work for Free in Kelowna?
Okanagan Regional Library - Downtown
1380 Ellis Street | Free
The downtown branch of the Okanagan Regional Library is a free place to work, with wifi and quiet seating in a large brick building next to the Innovation Centre. It suits a two-hour gap between meetings; the wifi handles email and writing, and the building is air-conditioned in summer. The library lists parking in the Library Parkade at $1.50 an hour on weekdays, free on weekends and after 5 pm.
The catch: calls aren't possible, laptops can't be left unattended, and outlets are limited.
Working from Cafes
Various Locations
Downtown, The Mission, Rutland | The cost of a latte
Kelowna's coffee shops are the no-contract alternative to coworking, for the price of a latte. Sprout Bread on Cannery Lane gets loud by 10 AM, Bean Scene on Bernard has a usable upstairs area, and Deville in Pandosy Village usually has a free table for Mission residents. In Vernon, Ratio Coffee has an upstairs loft designed for working that rivals most shared offices.
The catch: expect to keep buying six-dollar lattes, compete for outlets, and pick up background music on calls. Keep visits to Kelowna coffee shops to two hours at most.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a coworking space cost in Kelowna?
Few Kelowna operators publish prices on their own websites, so expect to ask for a quote. Accelerate Okanagan lists dedicated desks from $350 a month for its members, and Regus quotes day coworking and memberships for Spaces Innovation Centre and Regus Landmark online. Private offices in corporate locations like the Landmark District cost considerably more.
Is there free parking at Kelowna coworking spaces?
Only the spaces outside the core do. Staples Studio and Big Bear in Westbank have big free lots. Downtown spaces like Spaces Innovation Centre and Pulse Co-Working don't, so expect daily parkade rates or metered street parking. The downtown library's parkade is $1.50 an hour on weekdays.
Are there 24/7 coworking spaces in Kelowna?
Yes, but usually only with a monthly membership or private office. Drop-in day passes at places like Regus are generally limited to staffed business hours, so check current hours before you go.
What is the best coworking space in Kelowna for networking?
Accelerate Okanagan is the best choice for networking if you work in tech, since its programs connect founders with mentors, capital and peers. Okanagan coLab, the city's longtime community space, is no longer operating at its St. Paul Street location. Outside tech, ask any space about member events before you sign up.
Can I take Zoom calls in Kelowna coworking spaces?
Yes, at spaces with booths or private rooms. Pulse Co-Working has private phone booths, and Staples Studio rents a soundproofed podcasting booth by the hour. If you're on calls for four hours straight, rent a private office at a place like Kelowna Offices.
