The square hums with seasonal lights and laughter as your team unlocks the first clue on a phone screen — downtown Kamloops becomes a playful course of decorated storefronts, unexpected Santas and quirky public art.
This app-led Holly Jolly Hunt routes you through Centennial-area streets and riverfront promenades, turning everyday places into holiday checkpoints. Kamloops sits where the North and South Thompson Rivers meet; the city’s semi-arid hills and river channels push a crispness into winter air that sharpens the colors of lights and wreaths. The land here is Secwepemc territory and later shaped by fur traders and the arrival of the railway — downtown architecture and interpretive plaques still mark those layers of history.
Expect a mix of photo-capture tasks and silly mini-challenges that score points on a live leaderboard, all managed from a smartphone app. The game balances light walking on sidewalks and paved park paths with quick sprints for bonus points; it’s designed for mixed-age groups and is stroller- and wheelchair-friendly along most routes.
Practical tips: arrive with a charged phone and a small power bank, pick a start time before dusk for best light and safety, and use public parking or transit to avoid busy holiday traffic. Respect private property and local businesses when photographing displays. The hunt includes remote guide support through the app and can be played in other cities, but the Kamloops route highlights riverfront views and downtown seasonal decor — a compact, family-friendly way to make holiday memories without a long hike.
Yes — tasks are family-friendly and designed for mixed-age groups; adults should supervise younger children during street crossings and photo tasks.
