The Heritage Festival is happening this long weekend

The Edmonton Heritage Festival, a celebration of global cultures through food, entertainment, and crafts, is set to take place this long weekend. Due to ongoing renovations at its usual location, the festival has been relocated to Edmonton Exhibition Lands and Borden Parks.

Admission to the festival remains free. This year, attendees can look forward to a wide array of culinary delights from over 55 countries, ensuring there’s something for every palate.

Strathcona County will provide shuttle services directly to the festival from the Coliseum LRT station, with regular ETS fares applying. Park-and-ride buses will operate approximately every 10 minutes.

Park & Ride buses run approximately every 10 minutes between:

• 11:30am – 9:30pm on August 3       
• 9:30am – 9:30pm on August 4
• 9:30am – 8:30pm on August 5
