National Geographic included Edmonton in its list of best summer trips, the ONLY Canadian city, in 2015, and Edmonton was recently listed as Forbes' top cities to visit in 2023.

Edmonton offers the largest area of urban parkland with over 7300 hectares that expands both sides of our beautiful North Saskatchewan River to take full advantage of our great outdoors.

Edmonton hosts several festivals each year, including our world-renowned Folk Fest, Fringe Festival, Symphony under the Sky, and Ice on Whyte Festival.

We are a short drive away from the most majestic mountains in Canada, Jasper and Banff National Parks, which boast world-class vistas with ample hiking, camping, and skiing

With our new stadium, we have quickly become a top destination for many of the most sought-after musical acts.

Such an affordable city to settle down, work and travel.
