I love visual art, so The Works is definitely a summer festival destination for me. It is also one of the first festivals of the summer. Churchill Square becomes filled with art displays and art for sale. There is a main stage with musical…More »

A Taste of Edmonton is exactly what it says it is - samplings from some of Edmonton's best restaurants. And a taste is what you will get. The servings are very small - and expensive. You can expect to spend around $20 for a supper here. It is a lot…More »

This is my favourite festival of the summer. I always look forward to the food, music, dancing, and learning a bit about different cultures from around the world. A lot of the food is the same stuff you can get at ethnic restaurants, so I try to go…More »

Update - 11/28/2008

I hadn't been to Festival of Trees in about four years, so I decided to visit this annual event again this year. I was once again floored by the bright, beautiful decorated trees with a variety of themes. My favourites were the ones that incorporated…More »
