Summer should be full of fun, flavour, and good company. Luckily, you can get all of that and more at Heritagefest in Edmonton, a sunny day celebration of food, music, and the many cultures that bring Alberta to life.
From far and wide, people have come to Canada, bringing incredible recipes, new perspectives, and amazing stories.
This season, one festival will take you on a whirlwind tour across the world to showcase the people, places, and things that make Wild Rose Country so great.
What to Expect
Representing over 90 countries, Hertiagefest aims to bring people together, as it continues to get bigger and better with each lap around the sun.
Since their inception, they’ve earned international recognition as the world’s largest three-day multicultural event, but what can you expect when visiting?
With over 900 performances, authentic eats, crafts, souvenirs, and 70 Hertigaefest cultural pavilions, prepare to do a lot of walking, shopping, listening, and learning — for free!
No matter your age, this massive gathering will not be one to miss, especially if you have an appetite.
When and where
Sounds like a party? It will be!
If you’d like to check it out, mark your calendar for Aug. 2 to 4, then head to Edmonton’s Exhibition Lands and Borden Park, a festival first since its move from Hawrelak Park.
Be sure to bring your dancing shoes, sunscreen, a smile, and some friends.
Everyone is welcome, and everyone is in for a good time.
Enjoy and happy summer!
