Edmonton City Guide: 20 Things to do in Edmonton Alberta

Last updated: April 3, 2021 - Written by Jessica Norah 28 Comments

After our recent trip to Western Canada, we wanted to share a list of some of the top things to do in Edmonton Alberta. As Alberta’s capital city, there are loads of things to do in the city from skiing and biking to visiting farmers’ markets and perusing art galleries.

During our time in the capital, we did a Segway tour in Canada’s largest urban park, went to a hockey game, visited an art museum, searched for street art, rode a roller coaster in North America’s largest shopping mall, appreciated plants in a glass pyramid, and ate our way around the city’s growing food scene. We also made a day trip to nearby Elk Island National Park for some great wildlife spotting!

We’ll share our tips for visiting the city and our list of the top things to do in Edmonton Alberta based on our recent experience.

Basic Information on Edmonton Alberta

Here are all the basics you’ll need to know for planning your trip to Edmonton:

Where is it? 

Edmonton is the capital of Alberta, one of the provinces in the western part of Canada. The city is located in south central Alberta and is the province’s second largest city. Both Jasper National Park and Banff National Park are about a four hour drive away. Calgary, Alberta’s largest city, is about a three hour drive south.

Getting here? 

Most visitors outside of Canada will likely arrive by air, and the  Edmonton International Airport (EIA) is the main airport serving the city. There is also an airport in Calgary. Those in Canada (or in parts of the United States) may also want to drive or come by train as Edmonton is also well connected by rail.

Getting around Edmonton?

Edmonton is a fairly easy city to get around, with an extensive public transit network that includes buses and light rail trains. You can also take taxis or use Uber.

We had a rental car during our stay, which made getting around a lot easier. However, if you have a car be aware that parking in the city center is generally not free, and most city center hotels charge in the region of $15 to $20 CAD per night for parking.

There are Park & Ride locations throughout the city if you arrive by car but want to use the buses or light rail to get around the city.

Best Times of Year to Visit Edmonton? 

Edmonton has a seasonal varied climate with cold winters (average temperatures often below freezing) and warm summers. Winter lasts from about November to March with short autumn and spring like seasons in between. The wettest month tends to be July.

There is no best time to visit Edmonton as it depends on your interests but the weather does have some effect on the available things to do in Edmonton. In the summer, you’ll find more attractions open, warmer weather, and the majority of the city’s festivals take place between June and August. However, in the winter you have the opportunity for skiing and other winter sports, winter festivals such as the Silver Skate Festival , holiday celebrations, outdoor ice rinks, lower prices, and fewer visitors.

Also if you are planning to head north to chase the aurora borealis , northern Alberta and Jasper National Park are prime spots for seeing the Northern Lights with the best chances to catch them from September through early May.

Lodging in Edmonton? 

There are a lot of lodging options in Edmonton from hostels and budget motels to mid-range and luxury hotels, so you should be able to something that suits your budget and style. You can search and compare lodging in Edmonton here .

We recommend trying to find a central spot in Edmonton to have easy access to the city’s main attractions. During our time in Edmonton, we split our time between the downtown area and Old Strathcona, staying at two different hotels. This ended up being a good idea as it allowed us to explore these two different areas of the city more easily.

Our first hotel was the Chateau Lacombe  located in the downtown area. We had a nice suite with a good view of the city skyline and it was a short walk from many of the city’s highlights, including Rogers Place and the River Valley Park. Chateau Lacombe is also home to La Ronde, Edmonton’s only revolving restaurant which offers panoramic views from the 24th floor. 

Our second hotel, the  Metterra Hotel  is located on Whyte Avenue in the center of Old Strathcona. We had a standard room but the location was perfect for us to explore the area on foot and it was close to a number of shops, restaurants, and theaters. Our stay included complimentary breakfast, free valet parking, and a daily complimentary wine and cheese tasting hour! These were amazing extras and we highly recommend making time to attend the wine and cheese hour each evening before dinner. 

You can also check Vrbo  and similar alternatives to Airbnb if you are wanting to stay in a room or apartment in Edmonton. You can also find serviced apartments, camping, caravan parks, and other options in the city.

Edmonton’s many nicknames?

The city of Edmonton goes by a lot of possible nicknames, such as The Big E, Oil Capital of Canada (official slogan/nickname), Canada’s Festival City, The Chuck, The City of Champions, E-Town, Gateway to the North, Canada’s magpie capital, and River City.

You’ll also see a lot of local people just writing YEG or yeg to refer to Edmonton, especially on social media, which is in reference to the city’s airport code. Similarly Calgary (Alberta’s largest city) regularly goes by yyc, its airport code.

20 Top Things to do in Edmonton Alberta

Laurence and I have not yet traveled very much in Canada, in fact, our trip to Alberta was Laurence’s first time in Canada! I had been a couple of times before, but only to the Niagara Falls area in Ontario.

When asked to come to Alberta to explore the capital city of Alberta and experience the Dark Sky Festival in Jasper National Park, we both had to consult a map to see where Edmonton and Jasper were located. But come to Canada we did and we are so glad that we got to have a taste of Western Canada.

We are both looking forward to returning to explore more of Alberta as a week was definitely not enough time. If you are interested in heading to Jasper National Park from Edmonton (a 4-5 hours drive or shuttle ride), you can read this post Laurence wrote about our time exploring Jasper and attending the Dark Sky Festival .

Now onto our recommendations for things to do in Edmonton to help you put together your own Edmonton trip itinerary! Whether you have one day or a week, you should be able to find plenty of things to do in the city from this list.

Tour the Alberta Legislature Building

Edmonton is the capital of Alberta so the main buildings of government for the province can be found here. Visitors can take a guided tour of the Alberta Legislature Building , an impressive Beaux Arts style building built between 1907 and 1913.

The guide will tell you the history of the building, show you the primarily architectural features and art of the building, describe a bit of the political process in Alberta, and tell you a bit about some of the most famous premiers (leaders of Alberta’s government). A curious feature inside the building is the palm trees growing around the inside of the dome of the legislature building; how they got there is unknown although they are believed to have come from California in the 1930’s.

Tours are free and generally given every hour on the hour (just check the website for tour times and information). You can also pick up a brochure for a self-guided tour of the grounds of the Alberta Legislature Building, which feature 56 acres of manicured lawns and trees and contains a number of memorials, statues, fountains, and other points of interest.

Before or after your tour, we’d recommend taking the time to visit the new Alberta Legislative Visitor Centre which is on the main floor of the Edmonton Federal Building just a 3 minute walk from the Legislature Building. Here you’ll find the Pehonan Theatre where you can watch a free 4-D show about Alberta’s parliamentary history and culture (recommended!), the Agora Interpretive Center, and the Alberta Branded retail shop selling local products.

Get your Learning On at Edmonton’s Museums

For those interested in a good general museum that has a bit of everything from the history and culture of the area to natural history and science, I’d recommend the Royal Alberta Museum.

For art, I’d recommend the  Art Gallery of Alberta  which has a funky photogenic building and a collection of over 6,000 works from both Canadian and international artists. For everything science and for some great IMAX movies, head to the TELUS World of Science .

There are also plenty of museums for those with a special interest such as the  Alberta Railway Museum , Alberta Aviation Museum ,  Edmonton Public Schools Archives and Museum , and the Ukrainian Canadian Archives and Museum of Alberta .

Even if you are someone who hates museums, you might still want to check out the outdoor Neon Sign Museum  on 104th Street, which is simply an outdoor collection of old working neon signs from around the area with some informational panels.

No matter your interests, you’ll likely find at least one museum of interest in Edmonton.

Eat and Drink up the Edmonton Food Scene

Edmonton offers a wide variety of places to eat and being a larger city, there are always new places popping up.

Some places we tried and can recommend during our time in Edmonton include Next Act Pub (classic pub grub in Old Strathcona), MEAT (BBQ places with their own sauces in Old Strathcona), Tres Carnales  (popular downtown Mexican taqueria), Mercer Tavern (pub known for its fried chicken across from Rogers Place), Woodwork (nicer dinner-only New Canadian restaurant in downtown known for its wood-fired dishes and cocktails), and MKT (pub food and large beer selection in a historical railway station in Old Strathcona).

For coffee or tea, we had a nice coffee and tarts at the Duchess Bake Shop  on 124th Street , a good cuppa at Canadian tea chain David’s Tea , and coffee and a muffin in the pleasant but out of the way Little Brick Cafe & General Store  in north central Edmonton which also serves breakfast and lunch.

You might also want to take a food or drink walking tour to sample some of the city’s edible delights. Here is a list of several tours , which include food walking tours, beer tours, and distillery tours.

Go Vintage and Antique shopping

You can easily spend an afternoon or two exploring the vintage, thrift, and antique stores in Edmonton. Although they are dispersed throughout the city, we found a number of them within walking distance in Old Strathcona.

If you only have time for one place, I’d recommend heading to the Old Strathcona Antique Mall , the largest antique mall in Western Canada with over 130 vendors selling everything from Victorian era jewelry to industrial furniture to books and collectible glass. There is even a cozy nook upstairs offering free coffee and a small cafe offering refreshments and snacks downstairs.

A few other places we visited during our time in Edmonton included the  The Junque Cellar which specializes in a large variety of retro and vintage goods of all kinds, the Peacock Boutique which has a good selection of used clothing, toys, and household goods and is run by the Edmonton Emergency Relief Services Society volunteers, and Blackbyrd Cellar which specializes in vinyl (used and new), CDs, and music equipment.

There are also a number of Value Village and Salvation Army stores in the city selling used clothing, accessories, furniture, and home goods.

For alternative clothing (Gothic, hipster, hippie, etc.) head to Old Strathcona where there are a number of alternative and speciality clothing stores, especially along and just off Whyte Avenue.

Browse for Art 

Edmonton has a number of art galleries, and we visited several during our trip. Use the Galleries West website to search for art galleries in Edmonton or elsewhere in Alberta or Western Canada. One street that has several art galleries within a short walking distance is 124th Street where we visited the   Bear Claw Gallery ,  Peter Robertson Gallery , The Front Gallery , and West End Gallery . 

If you are looking for a larger collection but not interested in buying, we’d recommend a trip to the Art Gallery of Alberta . 

Peter Robertson Gallery things to do in Edmonton Alberta Yeg guide

Watch a Hockey (or Lacrosse) Game

One big difference between Canada and the United States is the popularity of various sports. Hockey is the national winter sport of Canada and lacrosse is the summer national sport.

If you are in Edmonton during hockey season, we’d recommend heading to the newly built Rogers Place to watch the NHL team Edmonton Oilers or the minor league Edmonton Oil Kings. Wayne Gretzky, probably the most famous hockey player in history, played with the Edmonton Oilers from 1979-1988. 

On our first night in Edmonton we watched the Oilers defeat the Carolina Hurricanes at Rogers Place. The place was packed with excited fans, many seeing the stadium for the first time, and it is a great venue for sports or other events.

Rogers Place will also be used for rodeos, concerts, and other sporting events so check out the event schedule for what might be happening during your visit. Rogers Place is one of a series of projects aimed to revitalize the newly named Ice District downtown area of Edmonton.

Pay homage to Neon Signs

They say the neon lights are bright on Broadway… but in Edmonton you’ll want to head to 104th Street to see the brightest neon in town.

The outdoor  Neon Sign Museum is a collection of historical working signs that were collected from in and around Edmonton, repaired, and placed along a few buildings, mostly the Telus building, on 104th Street for display. The signs chosen are representative of the commercial signage that was once prevalent in Edmonton’s history and informational panels along the street provide a bit of background.

Best to see after dark so you can get the full effect of the signs when they are turned on. You’ll find the Neon Sign Museum just across the road from Rogers Place and Mercer Tavern.

Hunt for Street Art

We didn’t intentionally seek out street art but we found several street murals and other public art displays in Edmonton, particularly in the area around Whyte Avenue in Old Strathcona. There are a few locations where artists are welcome to legally paint on the walls but these seem to be ever-changing.

If you are wanting to find the latest best locations for street art, we’d recommend popping in and asking the staff at The Paint Spot  for tips.

Visit the Glass Pyramids

Across the river from downtown Edmonton are four large glass pyramids which look a bit out of place amongst the North Saskatchewan river valley. These pyramids are home to the Muttart Conservatory , a botanical garden which hosts four different biomes (one in each of the four pyramids), featuring plant species from around the world.

It was already cold when we were in Edmonton, so we were excited to see some flowers and exotic plant species. Three of the biomes house permanent displays, featuring a temperate zone, an arid zone and a tropical zone. Be prepared for a bit of humidity and heat! The fourth pyramid features a rotating display and it was a Tuscany themed exhibit during our visit.

After checking out the four pyramids, we enjoyed soup and a tasty sandwich at the good on-site cafe.

Take a boat ride

If you are wanting to get off land, you might consider a boat tour while in Edmonton. Whether you are looking to go fishing in one of Edmonton’s rivers or lakes, or just want to sightsee along the mighty North Saskatchewan river, there are several companies offering boat tours in Edmonton. One of the local fishing companies is  Get Hooked Fishing Adventures.

The Edmonton Queen riverboat is an iconic Edmonton boat that offers sightseeing tours and entertainment on the North Saskatchewan River. During our visit the riverboat had just been sold and was out of commission, but it has been renovated and is back in action.

Go on safari at Elk Island National Park

If you have a car during your time in Edmonton and enjoy wildlife, then we very much recommend taking a day trip out to Elk Island National Park . It is about an hour’s drive from downtown Edmonton.

Elk Island National Park is Canada’s largest fully enclosed national park and is an important refuge for a number of animals, including bison, elk, moose, coyotes, deer, wolves, beavers, and over 250 bird species. In addition to wildlife spotting, it is also a popular place for picnicking, hiking, canoeing, and camping.

In winter, there are also opportunities for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. Unfortunately we visited on a rainy gray day, but we still saw a herd of bison, a coyote, and grouse as we drove along the park’s roads and stopped at a couple of the lakes.

If you don’t have the time (or car) for a day trip to Elk Island, you can still do some wildlife spotting in the city’s many River Valley parks or head to the  E dmonton Valley Zoo   for some more exotic animal spotting.

For those who are really interested in learning about the bison, I would recommend booking one of the Bison Backstage Tours if they are available during your visit. These are 45-60 minute tours with a park ranger that allow you learn more about the bison conservation efforts taking place at the park.

I love animals of just about any type but I am always amazed by seeing bison in the wild, such magnificent animals. Elk Island National Park has both wood bison and plains bison and manages the recovery of both of these species. It is sad to think about the number of bison that once roamed the plains of North America before the mass hunting and killing of the animals to almost extinction. Currently there are more bison at Elk Island National Park than existed in all of North America in 1890!

Spend a Day at “the Mall”

A shopping mall may not sound of high interest, but the West Edmonton Mall is probably the largest attraction in Edmonton. It is very very big! It is currently the largest shopping mall in North America and until 2004 was the largest mall in the world!

In addition to the obvious pursuits of shopping (there are over 800 stores to choose from) and eating, there is much else to do in this giant mall complex.

Our day at the West Edmonton Mall started off with admiring the impressive full-size replica of Christopher Columbus’s ship  Santa Maria , then onto a game of blacklight mini-golf (I won!), then a bit of winter gloves shopping (found some at Hudson’s Bay), a break for a quick lunch at one of the food courts (Greek fast food), then we visited Galaxyland which is the world’s second largest indoor amusement park (the Mindbender roller coaster is scary!), and finally our day ended with us getting wet at the indoor waterpark (lots of fun slides and pools). 

In addition to what we did, there is also an ice skating rink, bowling alley, aquarium, bingo parlor, mirror maze, comedy club, cinema (includes IMAX), piano bar, and dinner theater! You can easily spend most of a day here (as we did) but some people spend a full weekend here. 

If you plan to visit multiple parks and attractions, I would check out the current promotions and passes available at WEM to see if they would save money over buying individual tickets.

If you want to stay overnight there is the popular Fantasyland Hotel Resort (featuring themed rooms) as well as the more simple  West Edmonton Mall Inn located within the mall complex.

No many cities offer skiing within the city limits but you can ski, snowboard, or just do a bit of snowtubing without leaving Edmonton in the winter months. Ski season had not yet begun when we visited but Edmonton had already had its first snow so it was expected to begin soon.

If you are visiting in winter, you can check out rates and latest snow conditions at  Snow Valley  and  Sunridge Ski Area .

Explore Old Strathcona

Old Strathcona is an area of Edmonton that was designated a Provincial Heritage Area due to the number of historical buildings found here, many over 100 years old. Strathcona was once an independent city that sprung up and prospered around its railway station.

In 1912, Strathcona merged with the much larger city of Edmonton and the central district of what was once Strathcona is now the historic district of Old Strathcona. The main street here is Whyte Avenue which runs from 99th to 109th Street.

The area today has been revitalized and is known for its alternative clothing stores, independent boutiques, independently owned restaurants, art house theaters, and historical buildings. Every August, Old Strathcona is the c entral hub for the  Edmonton International Fringe Festival , the largest and oldest Fringe Theatre event in North America. 

We spent quite a bit of our time in Edmonton in this area. For instance we bought used books at Wee Book Inn , browsed vinyl records at BlackByrd Music , ate at the Next Act Pub, admired the street art, went antiquing at  Old Strathcona Antique Mall , and slept at the Metterra Hotel .  

Old Strathcona things to do in Edmonton Alberta Yeg guide

Pick a Street to Explore

One great way to get to know a city is to just pick a popular street and explore. We got recommendations from locals for areas to explore and headed off to walk from one end to the other, stopping at places we found interesting along the way.

Three streets you might consider in Edmonton would be Whyte Avenue (see Old Strathcona section), 104th Street, and 124th Street. 

4th Street Promenade

A number of Edmonton’s oldest buildings can be found on 104th Street, often referred to just as 4th Street or the 4th Street Promenade . It runs from the former railroad tracks to the North Saskatchewan River, where the original Fort Edmonton and Fort Augustus shared a riverbank in 1802. You’ll find a lot of former brick warehouses in this area.

Today it is both a business district and residential neighborhood, and is one of the downtown areas undergoing revitalization with a number of new restaurants and shops popping up here. It is also a gateway to the new Rogers Place arena and newly planned Ice District.

We spent most of a morning visiting shops, having lunch, reading some of the many historical plaques placed along the street about the history of the buildings in the area, seeing the Neon Sign Museum, and buying some sweet artisanal chocolates from Jacek Chocolate Couture .

For those who like history and architecture, you can put together your own self-guided downtown walk using this historical walking tour guide which gives you plenty of info about a number of historical buildings in Edmonton and organizes them by area, including one focused on 104th Street.

124th Street

If you want to explore Edmonton’s art scene, 124th Street is a great street to do it. The street is home to a number of excellent art galleries along with a mix of eateries, boutiques, offices, and funky stores like the Barking Buffalo which is both an independent clothing store and coffee shop.

We spent most of our time having coffee and pastries at the Duchess Bake Shop and perusing art galleries. Two of our favorite galleries were the Bear Claw Gallery which has a wide range of amazing First Nations art and the Peter Robertson Gallery.

During our visit to the Peter Robertson Gallery, one of the gallery rooms had been flooded with water for an incredible art installation featuring Canadian artist Steve Driscoll .

Bring History to Life at Fort Edmonton Park

If you love history, you’ll want to be sure to save some time to visit the family-friendly  Fort Edmonton Park , a living history museum that brings to life Edmonton’s history from about 1800 to 1930.

The park’s name comes from the former Fort Edmonton , which was a trading post set up by the Hudson’s Bay Company to trade in beaver pelts. The fort once sat near where the Alberta Legislature Building sits today and the remains of the old fort were torn down in 1915.

The park is set up around different historical periods, such as the fur trading era and the municipal era, and allows visitors a chance to learn and explore what the city would have been like in that time period through costumed interpreters, demonstrations, replica buildings, attractions, information panels, and games. The park includes eateries, period transportation rides (e.g., streetcars and wagon rides), a penny arcade, live theater events, and a miniature golf course.

The park is only currently open to the public May to September; expansions are in the works to add more exhibits and attraction to this popular Edmonton attraction.

This would be on the top of my list of things to in Edmonton on a return visit.

Shop at the Local Farmers’ Markets

There are a number of farmers’ markets in Edmonton where you can find fresh produce, buy freshly baked bread, and check out local speciality products. Two of the most popular are the City Market Downton and the Old Strathcona Market , which are both open on Saturdays.

However, there are many other farmer’s markets in and around Edmonton and you can find a full list here . Many are open year-round but some are only seasonal.

Play in the City’s Parks

Edmonton is a great place to spend some time walking, biking, Segwaying, relaxing, playing, picnicking, and exploring in the city parks. Edmonton has the largest expanse of urban parkland in North America and the River Valley is the largest urban park in Canada. There are over 800 park areas, and over 400 official parks in Edmonton!

I am not sure what actually constitutes a park, but you’ll find them in all shapes, sizes, and levels of facilities in the city. To find a park in your area of Edmonton, check out this exhaustive list of city parks .

We can particularly recommend exploring the parks in the River Valley with interesting urban natural spaces like Whitemud Ravine Park & Nature Reserve. The River Valley Trail in Edmonton is part of The Great Trail of Canada, which will be the longest recreational trail in the world once completed, stretching from the Pacific to Atlantic Ocean.

By the way, if you happen to encounter an unusually high number of black-and-white birds, these are magpies and there are a lot of them in Edmonton. Edmonton is known as the Canada’s magpie capital and the locals have a love-hate relationship with the bird.

Experience Sunset over the River Valley

If you are looking for things to do in Edmonton in the evening, you might just want to head outside and look up. Edmonton is a great place for a sunset, and the best spots are probably along the river where you have a clear view of the river valley. Find a bench or bring along a blanket so you can settle into a nice spot along the river bank to watch the sunset.

We chose to head to Ada Boulevard for a nice view, but you can ask around for other  locally recommended locations  throughout the city which are also popular date spots. If you are looking for another idea for great views of the city, you might also consider booking a meal at La Ronde , a rotating restaurant offering panoramic views of the city located on the 24th floor of the Chateau Lacombe Hotel .

sunset spots things to do in Edmonton Alberta Yeg guide

Segway or Bike around the city

If you are looking for something active to do but not too strenuous, consider a Segway tour or renting a bicycle to explore the area. The River Valley Adventure Co offers Segway tours, bike rentals, and snowshoe rental. We decided to do a Segway tour through the beautiful river valley of Edmonton as a way to orient ourselves to the city.

We specifically did this winter Segway tour during our visit. Laurence and I had both done a Segway tour before but not for a couple of years, so the safety video and training session got us back up to speed for the tour.

It was a fun tour with some great scenery and a bit of local history about the river valley area of Edmonton. Our guide was very friendly and we felt quite safe throughout the tour even when navigating hills and crossing a couple of roads.

The only downside is that the tour felt a little short, so we’d definitely recommend the 90 minute tour rather than the shorter 60 minute one.  But the good news is that once you’ve done the training on one of their tours, you can book additional tours with River Valley Adventure Co that don’t include the training portion, meaning you can explore much further on a second visit.

We didn’t have time for a second visit, but we did learn that River Valley also operate tours of Edmonton’s downtown area, which sounded like fun.

I really love travel, I wish I could have the time and money to go around the world but thanks so much for your guides to help one do so. I love reading them. When I visit other country, I often look for and buy some souvenirs, so I feel interested in the Vintage and Antique shops you recommend in this post, I’ll go there when I come to Edmonton Alberta.

Hi Emily, Glad you enjoyed our post on Edmonton Alberta and some of our other city guides. Yes, there are a lot of vintage, thrift, and antique stores in Edmonton. A good place to start is probably the Old Strathcona Antique Mall although it has limited clothing which you can find in the smaller downtown Edmonton shops. Best, Jessica

That’s a comprehensive list of things to do in Edmonton! I love the wildlife photos you took at Elk Island national park and would certainly love to go there, if I visit Edmonton. Also, Fort Edmonton Park, the living history museum, is a place I’d love to visit.

December 22, 2016 at 1:32 pm

Hi Ahila, Yes, I definitely think the day trip to Elk Island National Park and Fort Edmonton are two great places to visit in Edmonton! Too very different spots, one historical and one very natural and full of scenery and wildlife. Best, Jessica

I’ve never been to Alberta, but your post made me want to travel! I love cities where we thought would be “boring” but actually housed great hidden stuffs! Can’t wait to give this place a try!

December 22, 2016 at 10:04 am

Hi Mary, Yes, I have been to many cities and towns where people say there is nothing much to do and found plenty of things that I found interesting to learn and do. I think many travelers just look for highlight experiences and don’t spend a lot of time digging, but when you do you can almost always find some great spots in almost any city. Jessica

Except for Elk Island, I think we managed to miss just about everything on your list when we went to Edmonton last year. We did find a great cycle path though along the river.

December 21, 2016 at 12:57 am

Hi Lyn, Sounds you have a lot of things to do in Edmonton whenever you return! Elk Island National Park is a great as a day trip but there are also many things to do in the city which are often missed! Jessica

As always your posts is full of great information and beautiful pictures! Just the building that holds the art gallery is impressive, so I would definitely love to visit. The food looks great and so does the street art. I had no idea there was so much to see in Edmonton. Thanks for sharing on #WeeklyPostcard.

This is a great guide to Edmonton, Jessica. There seems to be a lot to do in this city and like always there are plenty of gorgeous pictures to illustrate that. I didn’t know that Edmonton is nicknamed the Oil Capital of Canada. Like always,

December 17, 2016 at 3:31 pm

Thanks Anda 😉 When we went to Alberta we had no idea how important oil is to the province, but it is the largest supplier of Canada’s crude oil and oil sands and the economy revolves heavily around the industry. Hence the Edmonton Oilers and Oil Kings hockey teams. Alberta has become very urbanized & wealthy compared to the rest of the country because of the oil, but unfortunately for the area the oil industry is in a slump which is taking a toll on the local economy and on Canada more widely. Thanks so much for taking the time to comment! Jessica

What a great city guide! Edmonton is definitely not a city most people want to visit, but it should be! My sister lives in Edmonton, so we visited for a few days to visit her and attend a friends’ wedding. Our favourite place to visit was the Zoo, a fantastic place and our daughter loved it! If time allowed, we would have liked to get to Elk Island. You took some gorgeous photos there!

December 17, 2016 at 8:39 am

Hi Mar, So great to hear that you enjoyed our guide as someone who knows the city much better than us! Yes, several seasonal attractions were closed when we visited (October) and we’d love to return. If you like the zoo, I would definitely recommend taking your family out to Elk Island National Park – great place for wildlife, hiking, boating, camping, etc. Best, Jessica

This is the perfect guide for me! I have friends in Winnipeg which means I would fly to Edmonton to catch a connecting flight and, obviously, I will want to hang around Edmonton to see what’s there before dashing off. You have highlighted so many things I wouldn’t know where to start … oh scrub that, I will start with the Elk Island National Park and hope that I get to take Bison and Wolf photos as you did – that’s amazing, I love that! Great guide, pinned this for the future so thank you for taking the time to share this 🙂

December 17, 2016 at 7:14 am

Hi Angie, Glad you found our post useful and yes, sounds like you go through Edmonton a lot and now you have a list of things to do in Edmonton on your next trip! Elk Island National Park is a great day trip from Edmonton and you have a good chance of seeing some of the animals just from your car (elk, bison, deer), although I’d recommend doing at least one of the many hikes to get away from the road a bit. Thanks for pinning! Best, Jessica

You don’t need to use up your vacation days to find some of the best fun-filled spots in Alberta.

There are a ton of hidden gems and unique places to visit near Edmonton that are less than two hours from the city, which make for some budget-friendly travel ideas.

Whether you’re looking for a family-friendly outing, a couple’s getaway (maybe with your dog, too) or something fun to do with your besties for the day, escape the city and check out some of these ideas for day trips from Edmonton.

If you’re bored of the ‘Alberta’s Largest’ roadside attractions road trips, this list provides a new set of ideas for you to check out.

Take a peak and then visit my list of 40 of Alberta’s hidden gems and most unique things to do.

From waterfalls to breweries to historic towns to rural gems and outdoor adventures, take a mini road trip and choose your own adventure with these unique getaways from Edmonton.

If you can’t go very far from the city this summer, any of these trips would make for the perfect cheap vacation from Edmonton!

14 Best Day Trips From Edmonton

1. waterfalls, breweries and distilleries.

Head west on Highway 43 for some different scenery other than the usual Highway 16.

Stop in Alberta Beach for some coffee, lunch or antique shopping, or a picnic by the water.

Continue on Highway 43 to Whitecourt and follow the signs for Hard Luck Canyon . It’s an easy 5-minute hike and then some stairs which take you down into the canyon bed and waterfall.

It’s a gorgeous spot to play in the water on a hot summer day.

city tour edmonton

Then, head south on Highway 32 for one of the nicest drives around Edmonton. This road is almost a copycat of the scenic David Thompson Highway (but with no cars).

Stop in at the Apex Predator Brewery just north of Edson.

It’s tucked away in the woodlands, but makes for a delightful patio experience (and you can bring your dog to this one).

For more bevvies, head over to Rocky Mountain Big Horn Distillery (only 15 minutes away) for some craft cocktails.

city tour edmonton

Make a weekend out of it and stay in a tiny house cabin in the middle of the woods nearby. This cabin is located in your own private, forested oasis. It’s close to some amazing trails, is dog-friendly and the perfect spot for a secluded, quiet weekend.

If you’re headed to Jasper , stopping at the waterfalls or the Apex brewery is a great way to break up the drive.

2. Babas, Bison and Big Burgers (or Caesars)!

city tour edmonton

This road trip from Edmonton takes you east of the city.

Take the Yellowhead Highway to the quaint town of Mundare, Alberta.

Along their adorably scenic main street you’ll find Baba’s Bistro. Stop in for authentic Ukrainian food – try homemade Borsch and a plate of perogies, sausage and cabbage rolls (it’s all made super fresh).

If you’re not that hungry, not to worry. Have a slice of pie or gigantic cinnamon bun and a cup of coffee.

Local art adorns each wall and antique furniture finishes off the charm of this bistro.

Down the street, you’ve got to stop by the world’s biggest sausage!

Then make your way to the town of Lamont and go hunting for treasures at the Elk Island Thrift Store.

Just south of Lamont is the north entrance to Elk Island National Park. Go for a scenic cruise and see if you can spot some bison!

city tour edmonton

The bison roam wild throughout the park, and sometimes they’ll come right up to your car!

If you need to work off some lunch, there are a variety of hiking and walking trails throughout the park.

When you’re ready for a big meal to finish the day, it’s time to head to the Unwind Bar & Grill in Andrew, Alberta – home of the revved up drinks!

Order the Caesars that comes with a burger, poutine, mac ‘n cheese bites and fried pickles ON TOP of the burger!

I order the one that comes with a bit of everything – dry ribs, cactus cut potatoes, jalapeno poppers, fried pickles, onion rings and who knows what else was on there!

The staff and locals are super friendly, and if you find yourself wanting to do this day trip on a Sunday, make Andrew your first stop. They serve a breakfast buffet and bottomless mimosas for $15!

3. Botanical Garden Tour

How about a road trip to stroll through gorgeous flower gardens?

Stop by the St. Albert Botanic Park , and wander through the adorable cottage gardens for some of the most picture perfect photography spots near Edmonton.

Then, continue west along Highway 43 for another 45 minutes until you reach the George Pegg Botanic Gardens, a spectacular peaceful spot in rural Alberta.

There are a couple historic farmhouses, flower gardens, interpretive signage and a tranquil boardwalk through the trees.

city tour edmonton

Round out your floral day trip from Edmonton with a visit to the University of Alberta Botanic Garden, just north of Devon.

And if you time it right, you can visit on an evening where you can reserve a picnic in the garden during evening twilight hours.

Be sure to book in advance because this is popular!

city tour edmonton

4. Wine Spa & Unique Goodies in Red Deer

city tour edmonton

This one is perfect for a girls getaway or even a fun way to celebrate a low-key bachelorette party.

Make reservations at the Solorzano Spa, Café and Wine Bar . This day spa is located within a cozy historic home built in 1906 and has kept all of its vintage charm.

Upon entering, you’re swept away to a Victorian past, among the original brick and woodwork and collection of vintage decor and antiques.

I recommend booking a vino therapy treatment! Try something like the vino pedicure.

Enjoy 90 minutes of heaven while your feet soak in a tub of merlot and includes a special cabernet scrub and a Grenache spray.

After your treatments, enjoy light snack and a glass of wine in the tea room or on the garden patio.

Then head to Sweet Capone’s for a sweet treat – the best Italian cannoli!

Not only are these pastries to die for (there’s usually dozens of flavours to choose from), the inside of the cafe is eclectic and adorable.

If you want to get outdoors in between the spa and Sweet Capone’s (or afterwards), Red Deer has an abundance of parks and trails to explore.

Visit the Bower Ponds and enjoy the scenic trails, have a picnic with your goodies from the bakery or even rent a paddle boat and get out on the water.

Make this a weekend trip from Edmonton by booking this gorgeous newly renovated home in the heart of the city, close to trails and parks.

city tour edmonton

5. Trains, T-Rexes and Treats (best for kid-friendly)

This unique day trip north of Edmonton includes trains, dinosaurs and an adventure farm.

On this adventure, you’ll find some of the best kid-friendly places to visit near Edmonton.

Start your day with a stop at the Alberta Railway Museu m where you can witness one of the only few remaining steam locomotives in Canada that still operates.

city tour edmonton

Continue your road trip by heading north to the Jurassic Forest .

Here, you can explore 40 acres of trails that pass by life size animatronic dinosaurs in the bushes.

Plan to spend 1.5 to 2.5 hours here! You can also bring a packed lunch and enjoy a picnic onsite.

There’s also dinosaur themed mini golf, a playground and a sandbox where kids can dig for dino bones and fossils.

city tour edmonton

If you have time, the Prairie Gardens & Adventure Farm where they have a u-pick, petting zoo animals and fun outdoor farm games for the little kids.

This place is extra special in the fall though, with all the pumpkins and harvest colours and decor.

Or you can head into Fort Saskatchewan and go straight to Miller’s Ice Cream.

It’s located inside an old train station and at the start of a beautiful municipal park where you can stroll around and enjoy the sunshine.

6. Central Alberta Craft Breweries

city tour edmonton

For the bigger kids, one of my favorite day trips from Edmonton with a dog is to visit some rural Alberta breweries and their patios!

Of course, you can still visit without your furry friend, but these ones are dog friendly.

Head south to Rimbey (about 1.5 hours) to visit Hawk Tail Brewery. The views from the patio are picturesque as you overlook the farmer fields across the highway.

Travel tip – the last couple weeks of July is when the canola fields pop their gorgeous golden colour.

city tour edmonton

Then head to Sylvan Lake to visit Snake Lake Brewery. It’s not located on the lakeshore, but the patio is big and the beers are crushable!

From here, you can head into Red Deer and start to make your way back north. We loved Sawback Brewing and Troubled Monk.

city tour edmonton

Make one more stop in Lacombe at Blindman Brewing which always has a ton of unique beers on tap, and they’ve got a great big patio area complete with couches.

Make this into a weekend trip from Edmonton and spend some time at Gull Lake.

It’s got a massive beach and is perfect for swimming or catching some rays.

You can book this cozy guest house for the perfect weekend getaway from Edmonton.

city tour edmonton

Not into beer? Follow this wine & wellness road trip from Edmonton (itinerary here)

7. Historic Lacombe and Rural Attractions

Lacombe is less than 1.5 hours from Edmonton, and has one of the most picturesque historic downtowns in the province.

Most notably is the flatiron building which is the oldest in Alberta and now home to the visitor centre.

city tour edmonton

Go boutique shopping, take a walking tour of all the murals and be sure to end your day with dinner at Cilantro and Chive .

P.S. don’t miss the Sweet Capone’s Bakery for their famous cannoli or another sweet treat.

If you want to spend a whole day in the area, spend some time at the rural attractions nearby.

Ellis Bird Farm deserves a visit, where you can stroll through the trails, butterfly gardens and ponds, admire the large collection of bird houses and enjoy a coffee or snack at the tea house.

city tour edmonton

For a little more adventure-paced, head to Kraay Family Farm for a corn maze, mini golf, farm animals, tractor train rides, a mini zipline and over 30 more activities for the kids.

Tip – take a look at these other ideas in this local guidebook titled Best Day Trips from Edmonton .

8. Hiking and History East of Edmonton

For a couple places that aren’t too far from Edmonton but feel like a world away, head east for about 45 minutes.

Start at the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village , an outdoor living museum that tells the important history of the Ukrainian settlers to this area from the late 1800s to the 1930s.

city tour edmonton

All the buildings in this establishment are real houses, businesses and churches that were donated and moved to the museum to be restored for visitors to enjoy.

Fuel up with some Ukrainian food at the restaurant and then work it off with a hike at Elk Island National Park, only a few minutes away.

If you visit at dusk you’ll have a better chance to see bison and other wildlife! And if it’s going to be a clear night, stay for the star gazing.

9. The Village at Pigeon Lake

Only an hour south of Edmonton is a cute tourist destination known as the Village at Pigeon Lake.

All the buildings remind you of cape cod style architecture and the community has a cute little park in the middle of the shops.

city tour edmonton

There’s a great antique store, a couple of boutique shops, great ice cream and a couple restaurants.

The lake is 5 minutes away if you want to check out the beach, have a picnic by the water and then go play mini golf at Blackstone.

You could even stay overnight at the Village Creek Country Inn , which made the list for the top romantic getaways in Alberta .

10. The Dreamcatcher Association

city tour edmonton

Spend a morning or afternoon outside at the ranch feeding horses, donkeys, goats and chickens.

This organization’s main mandate is providing nature-assisted therapy, but they’ve recently added public programming called Time on the Land for those that just need to get out of the house and spend some time with the animals.

The ranch is located near Ardrossan, about 30 minutes east of Edmonton.

If you want to continue your day outside, a little further east is the Cooking Lake-Blackfoot Outdoor Recreation Area with lots of hiking trails.

11. Wine Tastings and Historic Camrose

city tour edmonton

Make your way east for some wine tasting, historic main streets and sweets.

Your first stop is at Barr Estate Winery, just off of Highway 14, only 20 minutes from the city.

This rustic-chic farm is a picturesque setting for a fruit winery. Stop in for a tour and tasting, where you’ll sample both whites and reds made from rhubarb and raspberries.

Continue east of Edmonton toward New Sarepta, home to Alberta’s newest mead winery – Old Station Honey and Mead .

Tastings are conducted in an old renovated fire hall – you’ll love the story of how this winery came about.

Once you’re ready for some more country scenery, make your way to the historic community of Camrose.

Downtown Camrose has one of the best main streets in all of Alberta.

Enjoy some boutique shopping or stop in at one of the many bakeries for some sugary sustenance. The Sweeterie is my favorite.

If you prefer to stroll through some parks, Mirror Lake is stunning in the summer time, where you can watch Trumpeter Swans glide through the water.

If it’s hot out, the local ice cream shack at Mirror Lake is the best way to beat the heat.

And if you’re able to stay in town for dinner, Hart House offers a fine dining experience among a casual gastropub vibe, inside a heritage home!

Try the locally sourced menu items like buffalo or walleye – but the wine selection and charcuterie boards are always a hit.

12. Country Delights and Flower Farms

city tour edmonton

On this day trip you’ll discover donuts, antique shopping, a flower farm and maybe more wine or a brewery!

Start this one early! Head southwest to the hamlet of Calmar, and go straight to the Calmar Bakery.

They sell out early so you don’t want to miss out. Just read the reviews – many of them say they’re the best in Canada!

If you like antique shopping, you’ll love strolling through treasures to be found across the street at the aptly named, Yesterday’s Treasures.

Not far from here, you can visit Bio-Way Gardens, which has a mini-farmer’s market and a tea house on site!

Continue onwards to Sunnybrook to visit a flower farm – Farm Fresh Florals, where you can u-pick your own flower bouquet!

Don’t miss shopping at the Silo Farm Store (onsite at the flower farm), which has locally made goods and vintage and antique home decor.

If you’re feeling thirsty or peckish on your way back to Edmonton, make a stop in the Village of Pigeon Lake at Familia Brewing, just opened in 2022.

13. A Vintage Adventure

city tour edmonton

This trip takes you south through a small town to the Reynolds Alberta Museum, which boasts an impressive collection of agricultural, industrial, mechanical and aviation artifacts and technologies of the past.

Make your way south to Highway 2A to the town of Millet. Stop in at the Old Bank Café, located in – you guessed it – an old bank building!

This cafe, bakery and bistro has kept the vintage charm of its early years and now serves the perfect cup of coffee, breakfast plates and light lunches.

If you’re a fan of fancy breakfasts, try the brioche French toast stuffed with cheesecake filling!

Then only 15 minutes down Highway 2A, you’ll arrive at the Reynolds Alberta Museum.

If you’ve never been here before, or if it’s been years since your last visit, you’ll be so impressed by the every growing collection of restored vintage cars and farm equipment that was used all over Alberta.

The aviation portion of the museum has plenty of activities for kids, and you can even take part in a behind the scenes ‘white glove’ warehouse tour.

There are often events happening all summer long, so check the website for more info!

14. Country Cafes and Confections: Rural Foodie Tour

city tour edmonton

Start off at Cherry Lane Café (also a bed & breakfast). This quaint country setting is aptly named and looks like you’re entering a scene from the Notebook.

Dine in the vintage-inspired café, where you can choose from gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches.

I had to try the Albertan – layered brisket, bacon, cheddar, mozzarella and caramelized onions – I’m still dreaming about this 2 weeks later

And make sure you save room for the decadent salted caramel, 4-layer chocolate cake.

Our next stop was Stettler – known as the heart of Alberta. I’m a sucker for small town mainstreets, and Stettler fits the bill.

Our main mission though was to pay a visit to Bloke’s Bakery , a Stettler staple.

Here we found classic donuts – you won’t find crumbled potato chips or unicorn parts on top of these to mask the bland dough.

Just the opposite – soft, fresh, gooey and just sweet enough – one might say the perfect donut. If you can’t bring yourself to buy half a dozen, the cream johns are their signature treat. 

city tour edmonton

We continued south on Highway 56, passing through Big Valley , a charming village with an aesthetic grain elevator and little blue church on the hilltop.

A great place for photography, picnic and a road trip pit stop.

The Jimmy Jock Boardwalk is perfectly quirky and offers fudge, pie and ice cream if you haven’t had enough sugar yet.

Finally, after descending into the Alberta badlands landscape, we arrive at DNA Gardens which has everything you could want in a country getaway – a farm store, café, trail walks, greenhouses, the friendliest and most hospitable staff and a winery!

city tour edmonton

We’re not ones to shy from a beverage or two, so we were delighted to partake in a wine tasting.

Alberta has a budding wine industry, and the fruit wine grown here, from the onsite Delidais Estate Winery is an exceptional showcase of our province’s bountiful produce.

We sampled 8 wines, ranging from cherry, rhubarb, black currant and Saskatoon berries.

Unexpectedly, this fruit wine was dry and crisp, on par with something you’d find along the Naramata Bench in the Okanagan Valley. We left with too many bottles to mention.

This is a full day trip or you could make a weekend out of it! Stay overnight at Cherry Lane B&B, or the Phoenix House B&B , a lovely heritage home in Stettler.

Edmonton's population is booming and one city councillor wonders if we're ready

Another 100,000 people are projected to move to the alberta capital within 3 years.

city tour edmonton

Social Sharing

Edmonton's huge population boom over the past two years has one city councillor questioning whether the city is prepared for such a significant influx of people.

More than 100,000 people moved to Edmonton in two years, driving the population up to 1.14 million in 2023 from just over a million in 2021 — a 10 per cent increase, according to Statistics Canada and City of Edmonton projections. 

"That's way faster than I think anyone was expecting," Andrew Knack, councillor for Ward Nakota Isga, said in an interview Wednesday. 

"A Red Deer has moved into Edmonton in the last two years." 

Knack said he is worried about whether the city is ready for more people with its infrastructure and services.

"We need roads, we need utility lines, we need police stations, we need fire halls, we need rec centres, we need libraries," Knack said in late February. "I just frankly don't think we're ready for how quickly things have been growing." 

He said new neighbourhoods have few amenities and older neighbourhoods with aging facilities are also feeling the need for renewal.

  • Edmonton records rapid increase to working-age population

Knack is asking city administration to prepare a breakdown of the city's infrastructure and amenities so council can assess how to move forward. 

He made an inquiry at a council meeting last month, asking for an assessment of housing, schools, institutions, as well as language and translation services that the city offers to support international newcomers. 

The City of Edmonton is projecting nearly 100,000 more people will move to the city in the next three years, with a 3.6 per cent population increase for 2024, 2.6 per cent in 2025, 2.2 per cent in 2026 and 2.0 in 2027.

Keren Tang, councillor for Ward Karhiio, said communities outside the Anthony Henday ring road in the southeast and southwest are particularly hurting for amenities. 

The emphasis is on maintaining existing infrastructure, she said, rather than adding facilities and services. 

"I'm worried that if we keep waiting for when the timing is right for growth, by the time we get there, we just simply won't be able to meet the demand because the demand would have grown so much more." 

Tang said she gets consistent feedback from residents in areas like Walker and Orchards that snow removal isn't sufficient. 

Others don't have facilities like community halls, rec centres and libraries.

She said school shortages are also a big issue in her ward and fall under provincial responsibility. 

Population modelling

Sandeep Agrawal, a professor in urban and regional planning at the University of Alberta, agrees Edmonton should look at how prepared it is for the coming three to five years. 

"They're quite valid," Agrawal said of Knack's concerns. "And the city needs to look at this new projection." 

Agrawal said if the population grows at about 2.5 per cent a year as expected, it may reach 1.5 million people by 2035.

"That is certainly possible based on what we know now," he said in an interview with CBC News in late February. 

  • How Edmonton's zoning renewal could be a boon for newcomers

These are projections only, Agrawal emphasized, and several factors like policies on immigration and the federal government's recent cap on international students will help shape the outcomes. 

Edmonton's economy is doing well, housing is still relatively affordable compared to Toronto, Vancouver and even Calgary, he said, as reasons people are moving to Edmonton.

Funding deficit

Knack and Tang are also on the board of directors of Alberta Municipalities, which issued a statement last week following the most recent provincial budget, saying funding was insufficient.

The $722 million in funding allocated to the Local Government Fiscal Framework in the 2024-25 budget falls far short of what is needed to address current infrastructure needs, the group said in a news release. 

Alberta's population growth has been remarkable but it is putting tremendous strain on existing roads, bridges, water and wastewater treatment facilities, energy infrastructure, schools, recreation facilities and hospitals, AB Munis said. 

"A long-range strategic plan for infrastructure (complete with funding), with input from municipalities, is critical to addressing this extraordinary challenge."

Edmonton city hall shooter’s actions were ‘politically motivated,’ RCMP say in laying terrorism charges

O fficials with the RCMP and the Edmonton Police Service spoke to reporters on Tuesday about terrorism-related charges being laid against a man accused of firing a gun inside Edmonton City Hall in January.

RCMP Integrated National Security Enforcement Team Supt. Glenn Sells said the charges were laid because the accused in the Edmonton City Hall shooting was "politically motivated" and in his possession police found a SKS assault-style rifle, three prohibited rifle magazines, 150 round of ammo, and four gasoline-filled Molotov cocktails.

On Monday, the RCMP announced that 28-year-old Bezhani Sarvar was charged with counselling commission of a terrorism offence and possession of property for terrorist purposes.

Police said said those charges are in conjunction with nine others that constitute terrorism offences, including intentionally or recklessly causing damage by fire or explosion to property knowing the property was inhabited, intentionally possessing incendiary material while committing an indictable offence, using a firearm while committing an indictable offence and intentionally discharging a firearm while being reckless as to the life and safety of another person.

Sarvar is also charged with two counts of possessing a prohibited device, mischief, carrying a concealed weapon and possessing a weapon for the purpose of committing an offence.

The EPS had previously announced six charges against Sarvar, including arson, possessing incendiary material and recklessly discharging a firearm.

Sarvar remains in custody at the Calgary Remand Centre. He had been scheduled to appear in court on Tuesday but that appearance was put over to March 15.

Nobody was physically injured in the violence that unfolded at city hall on Jan. 23.

Several city councillors, staff, members of the media and elementary students were inside city hall when shots rang out that day.

Police have said the incident began just before 10:20 a.m. when a man came into city hall through the parkade and walked through the building with a gun. They said he fired shots, mostly on the second floor, and threw an incendiary device.

The man was arrested quickly and police believe he acted alone.

  • Luka Magnotta now living in medium-security prison, says Correctional Service Canada
  • 5 children injured in school bus rollover near Woodstock, Ont.

Sarvar had worked as a security guard prior to his arrest.

The day after the shooting, the Canadian Corps of Commissionaires confirmed he had been an employee since 2019 and was "assigned to a variety of locations within the Edmonton area but was never assigned to the security detail at city hall."

Security video of a man inside city hall who fired shots showed he was wearing a Commissionaires security jacket, a vest and a security shirt.

In a video posted to social media, which appeared to have been posted the morning of the shooting and which has since been deleted from YouTube, Sarvar was seen sitting in a vehicle and talking about completing a mission. In the video, he listed a wide range of concerns about the cost of living, the housing crisis, immigration and other issues.

In the video, the accused also speaks about "genocide in Gaza" and speaks out against "anyone that is destabilizing other countries."

Global News has confirmed Sarvar lived in Edmonton with his wife and their children.

Edmonton City Hall remains closed to the public as city officials make decisions on how to implement security changes at the building, though staff have been allowed to return to work and the media is allowed inside.

The police news conference on Tuesday is scheduled to begin at Alberta RCMP headquarters at 1 p.m. local time. Global News plans to livestream the news conference in this post.

She even did a little dance for Shelton while he strummed on his guitar and sang a particularly romantic and special lyric from the track which pointed to the year they met on The Voice : " It's not 2014 / But you still look good in those jeans ."

''Purple Irises'' was released on February 9, shortly after Stefani teased the project by posting artsy polaroid photos of herself and Shelton next to some purple irises.

The day the song was released, Stefani posted the photoshoot of them creating the cover art for the song, where she rocked a jean jumpsuit. 

''Creating this song was magic + we hope u love it as much as we do :)'' Stefani captioned the post.

The lyric video to the song will also make you swoon, as we get to see Stefani and Shelton showing each other purple iris flowers as a symbol of their love. How sweet!

Stefani appeared on  Jimmy Kimmel Live!   on Valentine's Day, where she revealed that it was Shelton's idea to make the song a duet, featuring his vocals. 

''Blake and I have  done a few [duets] together . And I've popped on a couple of his songs. When he's asked me to do that, I'm like crying. [I'd do] anything with him,'' she said.

She added, ''I'm so excited about the song, and I played it for Blake. And he loved it." 

On the show, the two then did an ultra romantic performance of the tune. 

One of their first  live performance of the song was on February 11 at the TikTok Tailgate party before the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers Super Bowl game. There, the two could not look any more in love while singing together onstage. Stefani then shared a backstage moment where her, Shelton, and the crew all chanted ''Purple Irises'' together.
