Kelowna's largest summer festival says it will not be returning in 2019. 

Center of Gravity took to Facebook Friday afternoon to make the announcement.

"Since its inauguration in 2008, Center of Gravity has grown to become one of the largest sports and music festivals in Canada. This would not have been made possible without the support of all of our fans, artists, athletes, vendors, and partners," the post reads.

"We are truly grateful for the contribution that each of you provided in helping us create this amazing event. We are announcing today that Center of Gravity will not be returning in 2019. Our goal is to return in 2020 with a fresh vision and the renewed support of all our fans. We look forward to seeing you all then.''

The announcement, made mid-afternoon Friday, had over 90 comments and 70 shares in the first 30 minutes since it was posted.
