The Edmonton Heritage Festival is the largest multiculturalism celebration in the world, featuring food, dance, music and performances representing over 85 unique cultures.
NOTE: this year's venue has changed to Borden Park due to renovations underway at Hawrelak Park.
Sample culinary delicacies, see creative performances, shop for crafts, artwork, and clothing, or chat with people eager to tell you a little about their cultural roots and their present-day communities in Canada.
Various pavilions will also be showcasing cultural displays with photos, paraphernalia, and stories about their culture or ethnic background in Edmonton.
Admission is free, but a donation for Edmonton’s Food Bank is encouraged.
