About this event


September 10 to 14, 2026!

Start your engines — Escape 2026 is coming to the Okanagan! Four nights from September 10–14, join your fellow PCA Porsche enthusiasts for four unforgettable nights of driving, dining, and discovery in one of Canada’s most breathtaking regions.



This multi-region celebration, jointly hosted by the BC Interior and Canada West Regions, will be headquartered at the Penticton Lakeside Resort, perfectly situated between the sparkling waters of Okanagan Lake and the rolling vineyards that define BC's Southern Okanagan Wine Country.



Each day will bring something new — Porsche worthy drives, scenic routes, and time to enjoy the very best of the Okanagan lifestyle. For those seeking more adrenaline, you’ll have the rare opportunity to experience the world-famous Area 27 circuit: choose a full track day or enjoy AutoX and parade laps followed by a gourmet lunch overlooking the track.

Evenings promise to be every bit as memorable, with sunset dinners, laughter shared over award-winning wines, and the unmistakable camaraderie that defines every Porsche Escape.


We will finish Escape 2026 in style

"Where Porsche Style Meets Okanagan Spirit"

 

The Closing Dinner

We’ll be wrapping up Escape 2026 in true Porsche style! Join us in the East Ballroom of the Penticton Lakeside Resort for a relaxed and laughter-filled evening celebrating four unforgettable days in the Okanagan. Show off your Porsche pride by wearing your favourite Porsche gear — from classic club shirts and jackets to that vintage racing tee you’ve been saving for a special occasion. Enjoy great food, great wine, and even better company as we toast to the friends, drives, and memories that make every Escape one to remember.


The Food promises to be EPIC with BCIR & CWR Hosts
Matt & Tim!!


Escape 2026 isn’t just another weekend on the calendar, it’s a celebration of Porsche passion, friendship, and the stunning landscapes that make the Okanagan truly world-class. Mark your calendar, polish your car, and get ready to make memories that will last a lifetime.



With only 115 hotel rooms available, this will be an intimate, exclusive event — and one that’s sure to sell out fast. If this is SOLD OUT add yourself to the waitlist
