Museums

Museums are a great way to get out and about this Family Day and we’ve got great news!

Movie Theatres

Hoping to catch a flick this Family Day? Landmark Cinemas and Cineplex theatres will all be open all weekend long.

Malls

Though we’d recommend checking their hours before heading out, West Edmonton Mall, Kingsway, Southgate Centre and Edmonton City Centre malls will be open.

Edmonton Valley Zoo

Lions and tigers and bears (oh my!) – the Edmonton Valley Zoo will also be open this Family Day Monday and makes a great family outing, especially for those with kids!

Where: 13315 Buena Vista Road

Grocery and Liquor Stores

Need milk or beer? You’re in luck. Though (again) we’d recommend checking your local stop hours, most liquor and grocery stores will be open on holiday Monday.

Telus World of Science

Looking for something fun to do with your favourite people? Why not spend the day at Telus World of Science on Monday afternoon?

Where: 11211 142 St NW, Edmonton

City-owned Recreational Facilities and Leisure Centres

Much like Edmonton’s malls, we’d recommend checking the hours of your local leisure centre, but several facilities will be open on Monday the 19th.

Edmonton Transit

While transit will be operational on Monday, February 19th, Trains and buses will run on their Sunday schedule.

Landfill

Good news, errand-doers, the Landfill will also be open this year on Family Day. Check out their hours here.

Closed

Parking

As per their website, no payment is required for on-street parking in Edmonton on Monday, February 19th, due to the stat holiday.

Costco

While grocery and convenience stores will be open this Friday, Costco will be unshoppable this Family Day Monday – Looks like you’ll have to get your massive hot dog fix before February 19th.

But there you have it, friends. Everything that’s open/closed this Family Day in Edmonton. Please be sure to double-check the hours of operation no matter where you’re headed and enjoy the day!
