Reminder: Fort Edmonton Park opens for the season this weekend

Fort Edmonton Park is one of the city’s best attractions, and it’s opening for the season the weekend! It is, after all, a classic way to spend a day, made even better with those massive renovations that only finished last year.

Only opening for the first time in years last July, Fort Edmonton Park had to have a shortened summer season in 2021. That’s not the case this year though, as the attraction has chosen May 21st to open its door once more! Need a refresher on what you can expect during a visit? We’ve got you covered.

The Midway at the park is maybe the most noticeable change, adding a new Ferris Wheel, a funhouse, and a new attraction called the ‘Cabinet of Curios’. Meanwhile, an entirely new signature exhibit- The Indigenous Peoples Experience, also opened its doors for the first time ever last summer.

Of course, if you work up an appetite exploring the park, there are a ton of cafes, restaurants and more to enjoy a meal in. Basically, it’s an entire day’s worth of fun, and now we can start planning our first visit!

We’re just treating this as a reminder of all the fun we’re going to have around the city this summer. We hope you’re in the same boat!
