IKEA Canada has confirmed plans to open a new planning and ordering point in Kelowna, British Columbia. The new location, referred to as a planning studio, is scheduled to open in late 2026. This announcement follows years of customer demand from the Okanagan region for greater access to IKEA's products and services.
The Kelowna studio will focus on providing personalized planning services for larger home furnishing projects, such as kitchens, bedrooms, and living rooms. Customers will be able to consult with IKEA co-workers to design their spaces and place orders for delivery. The studio will not be a full-scale warehouse store but will serve as a service hub for design and ordering.
This expansion is part of IKEA Canada's strategy to increase its accessibility across the country through a mix of traditional stores, smaller format locations, and planning studios. The exact location and opening date within late 2026 have not yet been publicly disclosed. Further details are expected to be announced closer to the launch.
