Our Local Experts say:
Alberta’s big sky country is filled with natural wonders visited by travelers from around the world. The theme of wilderness, western heritage and the frontier carries through many of Alberta’s historic cultural attractions too.

You’ll also find interesting and modern public art, numerous theme parks, sports venues, rodeos and more music, cultural and outdoor festivals than you can count.
