There’s a pop-up park in Downtown Edmonton this weekend!

We’ll be the first to say that Downtown Spark has been the gift that keeps on giving for us this spring, and the latest experience is no exception. A new pop-up park called Root 107 has arrived in downtown Edmonton, and you’re going to want to check it out! Here’s why.

Root 107 is located at the intersection of 107 Street & 101 Avenue. The new inclusive public space features murals, greenery, and unique seating areas made from recycled materials. Visitors are encouraged to grab takeout from a local restaurant, or check out one of the food trucks that has set up shop.

The pop-up park actually kicked off earlier this week, but is going on through Sunday, so you’ve got some time to check it out. And while you’re down there, make sure to explore all the other fun experiences and installations that are part of Downtown Spark.
