A diverse and playful attitude makes Edmonton a place for adventures in every day art, with music in the parks, theatre on the streets, and sculpture in the malls. Festivals animate the city year round, giving audiences the opportunity to check out the work of terrific Edmonton-grown artists — independent filmmakers, designers, poets and musicians.

Edmonton’s festivals also bring in top international talent, giving local artists a chance to measure themselves against the best the world has to offer. Audiences, too, are enriched by Festival City’s celebration of a world of creativity. They will often see their favourite local performers sharing a stage with international stars.
