Castanet Media hits 23 years young today - Kelowna News
In human existence turning 23 means life is just getting started. In internet terms, it's a lifetime.
www.castanet.netI can help with the latest publicly available information on Castanet Media Limited, but I don’t have live access to up-to-the-minute feeds in this turn. Here’s what’s publicly known recently:
-
Castanet Media has a long-standing presence in the Okanagan region, operating multiple local news bureaus and digital properties. This includes its core Castanet site and associated portals, which have expanded over the years to cover Kelowna, Vernon, Penticton, and other Interior communities. This history is reflected in recent Castanet articles and corporate updates.[2][4]
-
In 2019, Castanet Media was sold to Glacier Media, a Vancouver-based publisher with substantial Canadian media holdings, which has overseen continued expansion and integration of Castanet’s network across the Southern Interior. This sale is noted in Castanet-related reporting and company histories.[2]
-
Castanet has maintained a broad footprint beyond news, including digital services and classified/advertising ecosystems such as Castanet Automall, RV Powersports Mall, The Tango, and Okanagan Edge, underscoring its diversified local media platform.[4]
-
The Castanet brand has continued to publish local news and community-focused content, with anniversary coverage and organizational updates highlighting growth, reporter rosters, and expansion plans in various Interior communities over time.[3][2]
