About Fort Edmonton Park

Fort Edmonton Park is back after undergoing a massive expansion project to create a larger-than-life historical experience for visitors. The brand new Indigenous Peoples Experience is an awe-inspiring new addition to the park's exciting offerings. Gather and explore life through the diversity of First Nations' and Métis Peoples' histories and perspectives. The stories, music, artwork, and text in the experience come from local Indigenous perspectives and voices, gathered through engagement with local Indigenous communities and research.
The park is nestled on 158 acres of wooded parkland along Edmonton's River Valley and began as a Canada Centennial reconstruction project in 1967. Thanks to the dedicated efforts of the Rotary Club of Edmonton and the Fort Edmonton Foundation, the experience continues to expand upon Edmonton's story. Fort Edmonton Park is a leader in cultural tourism, offering local, regional, and international guests a truly interactive and memorable experience.
The expansive, multi-attraction space provides a community gathering place for guests, whether for a park visit, a private function, or a special event. Every visit is a new adventure filled with immersive and unique experiences.
