Arts & Culture

Edmonton is a vibrant, creative and culturally stimulating city with a wealth of cultural events and resources.

Sir Winston Churchill Square, in the heart of Edmonton's urban core, is where many of the city's 40 festivals take place. The Downtown Arts District surrounds the Square and includes the Winspear Centre, home of the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra, the Citadel Theatre, the Art Gallery of Alberta, the Stanley Milner Public Library, and beautiful City Hall with its millions of dollars of art on display.

However, arts and culture is not limited to downtown. Our city is well known for a myriad of festivals, including the world-renowned Fringe Theatre Festival, one of the largest theatre events in North America, and the very-popular Edmonton Folk Music Festival. For this reason, Edmonton is called Festival City! Check out the links below for more information on arts and entertainment in Edmonton!
