This is Edmonton

From iconic festivals to an eclectic arts scene, we invite you to join in on the action. Take your taste buds on a journey to one of the finest culinary scenes in the country, then experience the Northern Lights from stunning dark sky preserves.

Edmonton is lucky to boast the second largest Indigenous population in Canada, full of talented performers, artisans, musicians and entrepreneurs. Immerse yourself in culture at Métis Crossing, take an Indigenous-led tour, discover the stories that have shaped Treaty 6 Territory at the Royal Alberta Museum, or taste the inventive meals created by trailblazing Indigenous chefs. And that is just the beginning.
