Festivals

"The Edmonton Folk Music Festival is the gold standard for such events in Canada. Often sold out well in advance, the festival has attracted such diverse talents as Joni Mitchell, Elvis Costello and K.D Lang. It also has a great venue: a grassy hillside overlooking the North Saskatchewan River Valley and the city’s downtown that acts as a natural amphitheatre". Edmonton Unplugged, Macleans
