Festival City
Vibrant festivals
and innovative
dining bring
Alberta’s
capital to life
Edmonton is a city with many faces — it is known as the Gateway to the
North, Alberta’s Capital City, River City, Festival City, and is the home of the
celebrated Edmonton Oilers and Edmonton Eskimos. People come from all over
Alberta to indulge in the ever-expanding food scene, to soak in the infectious
entrepreneurial spirit, and to take in the non-stop lineup of big-name concerts.
One-stop entertainment spots like 124 Street, Whyte Avenue, and West Edmonton
Mall are attractions year-round, and a visit to the city would never be complete
without exploring the architecturally stunning Art Gallery of Alberta or taking in an
inspiring performance at one of the many local theatres.
