The Downtown Merritt Mural Walking Tour is a self guided digital experience visiting with 20+ murals. The murals are portraits of country music artists and songwriters including the likes of Alan Jackson, Hank Snow, Reba McEntire, Carrie Underwood and others.

Merritt Walk of Stars

The “Walk of Stars” are a collection of hand-prints (and one footprint) created by over 75+ country music stars who have visited Merritt BC over the years. Many of the participating country music stars visited during the Merritt Mountain Music Festival, now the Rockin River Music Festival. When you are coming to Merritt also make an effort to check out some of the local musicians playing at a coffee house open mic or pub.
