The biggest mall in the America's and it doesn't disappoint. I walked around for about 2 hours 20 minutes covering 2.50 miles/4km. Plenty to see and do here with a wide variety of stores. Lots of beautiful art and set pieces throughout the mall. If you are a foodie, you'll be in heaven. Food options galore, I can easily gain 20lbs in a week here with no restraint. Despite this mall being filled with thousands of people at any given time, it never felt crowded to me, just busy. Parking was surprisingly easy and stress free.

The biggest mall in North America. There is an amazing water park and amusement park. Fun and relaxation. Children friendly. A lot of shops and you can spend whole day here because it's very large. A lots of great restaurants for foodie. A must visit place!

Great place to spend a nice relaxing couple of hours. Tons of stuff to do here; feeling hungry, they have dozens of options to choose from, feel like visiting the water park, they have an indoor wave pool, what? Literally hundreds of shops and kioks which sell almost any and everything, I think I even saw a Toyota dealership in there somewhere, IN A MALL! Amazing! Definitely going back there when I go to Edmonton again.

Had every store you really need. Also known as the biggest mall in North America, and one of the largest malls in the world. It has a hotel connected to the mall itself, and is located not far from the international airport. This enables travellers to have an all in one stop. Inside the mall there is not only a pirate shop with RC boats and paddle boats, it also has an entire water park with a wave pool. The mall is also home to Galaxy Land, and theme park with many rides for both adults and children. It has a haunted house and various carnival games with prizes.

What an enormous mall! You can see, and do almost everything here. Some really neat shops and attractions. If you want to visit for the attractions, make sure you double check operating times, and you may be able to score a deal by purchasing tickets before you go. Free parking. No admission fee for the mall.

Excellent experience! You can go swimming at the water park, watch hockey matches at the indoor rink, go to the movie theatre and go to an indoor amusement park. There's also two separate food courts you can choose from. Highly recommended to spend the whole day here if you can as there's many different stores to shop from.

Have been here few times for short visits only. But this time I spend quite a time here with my kids. The mall is humongous, well planned, beautifully decorated and well managed. Easy to find stores and entertainment facilities. Lots of fun for family and people of all ages. You can find almost everything here. My kids love this place. Mall management has done great job as Christians shopping is so easy and fun here.

It is a nice big mall with lots of shops and attractions. Too bad that everything is so expensive in there. We only entered the Aquarium and it was nice. Not as big as I thought it’d be but it was so cool watching the sharks, penguins and turtles swimming around. You need at least a couple of days and deep pockets to really enjoy everything it has to offer.

Amazing weekend! Got super lucky and scored the new Camping room. It was insane! They put a ton of thought into this room. Fire pit, giant TV, giant jacuzzi, animals all over. My kids loved the skunk in the bathroom. Lol. Very friendly staff, check in and out was very smooth and far. Very clean and fresh. 100% recommend!

Way too busy on a Saturday but we expected that. And too hot. We love the variety of stores, places to eat and the facilities. Next time we will go during the week when it's quieter. Definitely check out the T&T Market. The Chinese buffet is delicious and they have an excellent bakery and bubble tea selection.

This place is really beautiful 😍. You can definitely spend a whole day with your family and friends. They have many activities like water theme park, rollercoaster, game station, casino, bowling , many things for kids etc. You can find a lots of food stalls with every cuisines. Must visit here if you're planning a trip into Edmonton.

Lovely! Quite crowded but again I visited on a Saturday and that’s expected. There’s the arcade and cinemas on the top floor. Lots of designer outlet stores with colourful designs and decorations making it look like different building- gorgeous concept. There’s a huge indoor splash pad with regulated waves and water slides, that was quite exquisite. Hockey rink inside and lots of places and options for food, drinks, snacks or whatever you like. I had pretzels and was lovely. Not as thick and big as expected but good otherwise though the cinnamon sugar over it was a tad much. The pretzel 🥨 bites were new to me but nice, I guess I didn’t have an expectation, tasted half way between baked bread and fried dough. The salty pepperoni 🍕 pretzel was excellent. There’s the seal lion water way and the mini golf course, both required paid entry for access but looked like lots of fun!

To be honest it was okay. It's big and has activities such as a water park..hockey rink, a pirate ship in the middle of the mall, go Karting. It's a big mall so give yourself time to walk around. It's pretty much like any other mall in terms of the stores. It's a nice attraction to visit.

Fantastic! A great water park, a great amusement park and a ton of other fun stuff for the family to do like ice skate, go carts and more we even met some real live 3 toed sloths there. On top of all of that, its an amazing mall with everything you would want for shopping and tons of options at multiple food courts to eat. Loved our vist to the west Edmonton Mall!

Huge mall. Tons of stores. But it seems like they put more money and effort into the stores than the attractions. Half of the rides at galaxy land were closed. Half of the slides at the waterpark were closed. The drive experience was closed at 730pm and the zipline was closed at 330pm. 2 hours earlier than the posted hours. Very disappeared daughter

Huge mall. They have got all the brand big and small. I have been 2 times and both times I wasn’t able to go through everything. They have car showroom, full size ice hockey ground, big wave pool with slides and go kart kind of racing cars and many more things. Must visit

Largest for a reason. The mall somehow manages to have ALL of the fun you would look forward to in a city. Watched a movie on National Cinema Day, there is a seal show, pirate theme park, indoor water park and lots lots more. Super busy during holidays. Definitely Worth a visit if you are in Edmunton

The largest mall in Canada is located in the city of Edmonton. Lots of shops and stores which vary from high-end luxury to the more affordable ones, they have everything in this mall, from a water park, to an amusement park and even H&M. But despite all that, the washrooms were very difficult to find in this mall. They should definitely add more washrooms. This mall is also very busy since it is flocking with tourists and locals alike.

Great place to eat! 22 beers on tap, if you find yourself thirsty for a pint! Server was friendly and efficient! I had the Donair Tacos. Yum! Tater tots were perfect. Hubby had the fish and chips, said it was delicious! You can build your own burger, which is what my brother did. It was gone in no time, so I do believe he enjoyed it! Would definitely go back.

This place is more than just a mall, it’s a experience/ major attraction. This place is absolutely incredible it contains 2 food court a water park,hockey rink,movie theatre and hotell and can’t forget about the go kart track. And that’s probably 15% of what this place has to offer. If you ever in Edmonton this place is must go. You won’t regret it that’s for sure. Also inside there is a full-size amusement park for the kids

Exploring West Edmonton Mall is like stepping into a world of endless excitement! From thrilling water park adventures to exhilarating ice hockey matches, there's something for every one of all ages. Indulge in delicious cuisines at the vibrant food courts and discover treasures in the array of shopping stores. It's more than just a mall; it's a hub of entertainment and joy!

For Edmonton and the winter climate, this mall is perfect. I find the mall awkward to get around if I just need a couple of things. However I can totally understand how someone visiting as a tourist can find the mall fascinating. There is something for everyone and lots to do.

West Edmonton Mall is basically my playground on steroids! It’s like stepping into a whirlwind of fun, with shops to browse, rides to scream on, and enough food to keep me fueled for days. Yeah, it can get crazy busy, but that just adds to the wild ride. It’s where I go when I need a dose of excitement and a break from reality. WEM, you never fail to deliver the thrills!

I stopped here to check out the place again because it has been 15 + years since my last visit. The place was loaded with amazing stores and lots of fun activities. There was a huge water park there, an ice rink, a shooting range, a casino, and a Hasbro amusement park. Not to mention Fantasy Land Hotel. I am now planning a visit there soon with my family to have some fun. Fly them in for a visit after my hitch is finished, and they can drive back to BC with me.

We were very excited to visit this mall and it did not disappoint! The amusement park was above our expectations actually! The rides were great!! The roller coaster was actually pretty big and long, and the coaster actually spun around as you went down and around! It was awesome! The drop tower also shot you up and down multiple times! We LOVED that there were no lines and we got to go on multiple rides back to back! We did go on a Thursday, so we got a discounted rate as well. Not sure how busy it would be on a weekend. The mall itself was also pretty decent with lots of stores! Bourbon street is awesome! Tonsssss of cool restaurants in there, and they also still have a regular mall food court as well…. It is updated and super clean and well decorated too! Bathrooms were also clean and very large! The ice rink in the mall is super cool, and we didn’t have time to checkout the waterpark but we heard amazing things from there! If we get to come back we will definitely have to check it out!

West Edmonton Mall is a shopping haven, boasting an array of stores for every taste. Its colossal size is matched by a variety of entertainment options, from an impressive waterpark to an indoor amusement park. The themed sections make each visit unique, and the abundance of dining choices ensures a delightful culinary journey. With its family-friendly atmosphere and constant events, West Edmonton Mall stands as a captivating destination for both shopping enthusiasts and those seeking a memorable leisure experience.

This shopping mall is really too big. Inside, there are various activities, including dolphin shows, a water park with waves, a pirate ship, an ice skating rink, and a variety of luxury brand stores with a wide array of products, and exquisite decorations. This mall is a great place for family gatherings.

This mall is huge. It has lost its allure and luster over the years. Still great things to do and see here. The Waterpark is amazing. The amusement park has seen better times. Very tight space for everything they have. Not much for older kids to do. The lagoon once was a magical place when the sub was running, but since it was shut down its lost excitement. Great food options throughout the mall and especially on Bourbon Street. The Jubilations dinner theater is a fun night out. Don't expect Broadway and just enjoy the evening. Overall, it's a lot of walking, store space and people. Basically if you need it you can find it in this mall.

The WEM is massively entertaining with more than I expected I saw the water park and go carts and took the kids to see Santa. The art and statues are phenomenal as well as placed tastefully and elegantly. I will return here many times to enjoy it all.

As a person from Vancouver, WEM reminded me a lot of Metrotown or Tsawwassen Mills, except with an amusement park, Water park, and other touristy attractions inside. Galaxyland is very fun especially if you have a pass. I recommend going on a weekday as it will be far less busy.

Amazing experience! You get to enter some of the old buildings that were set in the time, there's even characters dressed up on costumes from that time! There's cafes and washrooms all over, and 2 trains to bring you around. Definitely bring snacks & water with you & sunscreen! Great family experience.

Overall, an interesting park, especially for children. But there is also something for adults to see. Be prepared for the fact that you will have to walk a lot because the park is simply huge and it is impossible to explore it in a couple of hours. I really liked the town where there was a bakery, a pharmacy, a small corner with animals and a telephone exchange where you can call. Why 4 stars and not 5, because the problem with parking is catastrophically small for such a large park. Or you have to arrive very early to grab a seat or even be without a car.

PROS: * A very nice way of showing and preserving a piece of history. * Exhibits are very well done. * Staff is dressed according to the theme in the buildings and are very knowledgeable explaining every item on display and their historic significance. CONS: *None Overall Impression: I would highly recommend a visit during the week when not busy. Take your time

Wonderful place for whole day, we spent 5 hours, there are so many things to see and very well organized, map was super helpful. Really had the feeling of traveling in time. You can take the super old train, meet people from old times, watch a blacksmith or listen to fur maker. Trains and rides are included in ticket price. It was really an amazing experience.

I was super impressed with this place! The indigenous peoples exhibit was amazing! The old fashioned streets and buildings were really cool! And the fair at the end was awesome! My only wish was that they were open later. We had to rush through a bit and didn't get to see everything I would have liked to.

I love Fort Edmonton Park! And even more so now that they’ve completed their renovations! I love exploring all the historic buildings & learning the history, seeing things captioned from different eras. Love riding the street car & the train! Watching a show in the old theatre! Love the actors/actresses they have walking around & in the old homes & shops! They all play their part so well & know the history about the location when asked. Love the exposition & all the rides & games available! You can spend a whole day here very easily as we were there for just over 3 hours & ran out of time as there was still so much to see & do!! Highly recommend!!

It's a beautiful place to visit. Do not visit in the heat there's not enough places that provide a cool enough atmosphere. Fall or spring would be the best season to visit in, rides are fun with medicore wait times food stands are unique and good. I often end up overheating while I'm here, lots of walking. Family friendly but would not recommend visiting with young children.

What an amazing experience! Been here many times over the years and have never run out of stuff to explore! From the newer indigenous experience and revamped midway to the train and fort there's much to learn, taste, enjoy and explore! Would recommend to anyone who is visiting or those residents who haven't yet had the chance. 😄

Fort Edmonton Park is truly a mini city. From the moment we stepped foot inside this captivating historical gem, we knew we were in for an incredible experience. Family Fun: Fort Edmonton Park offers a plethora of activities that are bound to keep the whole family entertained. Whether it’s exploring the bustling streets of the 1846 Hudson’s Bay Company Fort, hopping aboard the vintage steam train, or engaging in interactive exhibits, there’s never a dull moment. Our kids were thrilled to dress up in period costumes, play games from the past, and even try their hand at traditional crafts. The park truly brings history to life in the most engaging and enjoyable way possible. Easy Access: Getting to Fort Edmonton Park was a breeze! Located conveniently within the city, it was easily accessible by car or public transportation. The park’s proximity to major routes ensured a smooth and hassle-free journey. We appreciated the well-marked signs that guided us to the parking area, making it a stress-free experience from start to finish. Lack of Parking: However, it is worth noting that parking can be a bit challenging during peak hours. As the park attracts a considerable number of visitors, finding a parking spot might require a little patience and persistence. We recommend arriving early or considering alternative transportation options to make the most of your visit. Opportunities to Learn: Fort Edmonton Park goes above and beyond in providing educational opportunities for visitors of all ages. From knowledgeable interpreters who eagerly share insights and stories, to informative exhibits that showcase the rich history of Edmonton and its people, we left the park feeling enlightened and inspired. Learning about the region’s early settlement, the fur trade, and the evolution of the city was not only fascinating but also helped us appreciate the area’s heritage in a profound way. Fort Edmonton Park is a true treasure that offers a perfect blend of family fun, educational experiences, and accessibility. Despite the minor inconvenience of parking, the park’s engaging activities and historical richness make it an absolute must-visit destination for families seeking a memorable adventure. We wholeheartedly give it a five-star rating and cannot wait to return for another immersive journey into the past!

We had a blast at the market. We went for fun and the drag show and fun was what we got! It was a VERY festive set up throughout the park, lots of booze and food and photo ops and fire pits. We will be back next year…or this weekend lol!

For the first time since I've lived here in 2017, finally managed to make it out to fort Edmonton Park in order to participate in the Christmas market events.. what an amazing place, that brings you back in time. Will definitely have to visit this place again during summer of 2024 !!

I’ve been here many times but I refer went here for Dark (Halloween set up) It was great, vet well lit, lots of great scares. The drinks were a bit pricey but it’s what I did expect for featured drinks (Jello shot in a syringe 😂) We’ve also bought tickets to The Christmas Market here (runs from late November to mid December) * post will be updated to reflect my experience :)

The family and myself had a blast. The biggest surprise was that the trolley and steam train rides were free and unlimited with your paid admission. There was a small fee to ride the horses I think. The volunteers were really good at acting their parts and even tried to sell us snake oil. You can easily spend a whole day there visiting the fort, enjoying the mini fair or learning some indiginous history and the new building. Long story short it was time well spent.

We went to check out the Fort Edmonton Park Christmas Market and what a fantastic day! Everyone wanted to walk around to explore all the fun things Fort Edmonton offered. Our first stop was the Merry mid way. There were game's, food/drink stands to sample yummy bakings or drinks. Frosty's Funhouse, maze, and plenty of photo ops available for all to take pictures. We then rode the street car to take us for a little ride to the Market hall where we checked out All the different vendors to offer some beautiful Christmas gifts to buy. We also stopped at the Hotel Selkirk and peaked in the Capital theater. A must do every year for a fun outing for the family during the Christmas season!

Admission is pricey, but once you're in the gate everything is included besides pony and wagon rides. So the midway rides and games, the steam train, the street car trolley, the mini golf, and all the building exhibits are included. The midway rides are very child-friendly, even allowing my youngest (who normally can't go on many rides because of height requirements) onto all of them as long as a parent was accompanying. They have people in costumes throughout the park, showing what people wore in the past, and teaching people about the buildings and people who lived there. I really enjoyed that aspect! The new Indigenous People's Experience exhibit is spectacular, so definitely make sure you check that out! Overall, a great experience to do with the family once a year.

At first glance, you'd think this park is just all about the rides and the parlour games--but when you explore further, it'll transport you to an amazing historical trip and let you experience nature, interactive museums, steam engine and street car rides, farm animals, music, food and the arts in one whole venue. We love how this place looks different every season and how it teaches us a lot each time we visit. It took us 4 separate visits to look around and cover the entire facility. There's always something new to learn and discover and the beautiful exhibits are always awe-inspiring.

First visit to the park in several years. There have been some positive changes and a few things that were not as good as in previous years. The new Indigenous Peoples Experience was top-notch. The guides in the exhibit were friendly and helpful. Lots of good information to help build awareness of this chapter of Canadian history. The midway and games were a lot of fun. The staff working there were friendly. Older exhibits and buildings were not as interesting or interactive as they have been on past visits. Not all the exhibits were open or running and staff seemed unengaged. With a couple of exceptions, staff sat in their places, but did not interact with guests unless asked a question. Still, lots to see and do. Well worth taking the family. A few tweaks and this park would be back to its old high standard.

There is no place like this in Canada as an indoor Waterpark adventure. We had the best time! It really felt like a summer vacation. We tried the zip line, flow rider, wave pool, and various water slides. Unfortunately we arrived too late ( 12 noon) we didn't have the chance to purchase tubes and they are good use for the wave pool and some water slides you would have to line up for so it helps skip the wait on the inflatable tubes they provide for those specific slides. So arrive at 10 am if that is something you are interested in. Staff at each station was very nice, and it was nice to see how LGBTQ2 friendly the staff was. The change rooms provide shelves for shoes in the entrance, lockers are $10 medium size and $15 for the large size per day. Towels are a $3 rental fee, so you won't have to worry about bringing your own towels. Do bring your own soap and shampoo items with you as they do not provide these items when rinsing off the chlorine. 3 hours was good enough for both of us to have an awesome time. We didn't like the fast food menu items, so we ended up exploring the food court in the mall instead.

Fun place to spend a few days. The wave pool is awesome and the slides offer a great variety. Some are long, some are unique, and they all vary in intensity. It’s also super warm in the park and the water. Feels like a destination holiday in Edmonton in the middle of winter! Only complaint is that the food is below average and the lines get very long in the middle of the afternoon (20-35 minutes per slide).

We went over the holidays and had lots of fun. I am giving it 3 stars because they run out of inflatables around noon, so they only had a few available. The same thing happened with the double and triple tubes for the slide. They only had around 7, so the lineup to get one of those to be able to use the slide was around 1h. There were hundreds of people there, so if they are doing that because of Covid I understand; however, those big lineups are even worse.

Tired of not being able to go to the beach? Feel like taking a budget summer beach day? A great way to spend a day with kids and family at the World Waterpark in West Edmonton Mall. It’s huge once you step inside and the slides were humongous. Lots of options for people of all age groups. We visited on a weekday and even then it was busy so I wouldn’t at all recommend visiting on a weekend. Kids have a lot of separate options like smaller pool and a separate playground waterpark. For those who are old and just wanna chill, there are seats and even a hot tub. The larger and more extreme slides as the name suggests are more fun and steeper and faster. The staff and lifeguards are well trained and prepared, with the areas being well kept and maintained. Washrooms and locker rooms are also pretty decent. The tickets are 50+ a head but there are a lot of options and slides which you can ride multiple times if it’s not busy which makes it worth it. The wave pool on my visit was pretty good with very frequent and good level waves. I would love to visit again and would recommend. It is just a wild sight from the top!

I saw this place the first time I visited WEM, so I decided to give it a try, it didn’t fail me at all. The place is huge, nice and clean, the access is perfect, you can buy your tickets in advance so you can avoid the lines, lockers were clean, and well organized, the idea of a bracelet to open your locker is more than efficient and perfect, although the water has chlorine, is tolerable and understandable because of the amount of people in the park every day, the slides are just amazing, different levels for everyone, some of them were super intense and others were nice and calmer, facilities were in perfect conditions, and clean which leads me to the next point, staff members, everyone was nice from the entrance to the lifeguards and they gave you proper instructions for each attraction, and looked after if you have any situation. It is worth every cent you pay for. I definitely come back. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Sooooo busy and sooooo expensive. After paying $200 for my family to get in, they want $15 for a locker, $9 each for a tube, so $45 for us, then if you turn your back on your tube for one minute, some teenager has stolen it. Everyone puts towels on the deck chairs and doesn't use them so my 2 year old had to nap on the floor. Can't bring in outside food... Got everyone hot dogs for lunch, cold, and rock hard buns, for $42. Slide line ups are taking 45 minutes so we did 2 and gave up and stayed in the pool. Just not worth the money for an average income family. Fun for the rich maybe.

A large indoor water park is located in the shopping center. Friendly staff, large changing rooms (prices for a locker are overpriced). On a day off, there are many people, queues for the slides, jacuzzi. There are steep waves in the pool, but there are too many people, which can be dangerous. Sunbeds are mostly occupied.

I bought my tickets and got 50% off through West Edmonton Hotel, as we stayed there. Fantasyland Hotel offers the same deal. Wearing a mask is required in non aquatic areas. There is a nice area for kids with nice water slides and fountains to play with. Some water slides in the adults area were closed! Be careful: Some adult slides are not safe for the kids (especially if they don’t know how to swim) even if their height meets the minimum height allowed. You need to check how deep is the water they will end up going through at the end of the slide. The place is well maintained and clean. The food is not really good at the kiosk inside the waterpark.

We had an amazing time! The World Waterpark is an experience not easily forgotten. From the enormous kids area, to the absurd amount of slides. Oh, there's also a zip line and bungee jump tower. If you're so inclined you spend some extra money and get a private cabana, giving you a space to relax with your friends or family. We simply had a blast. We never really bring towels and bags into a pool area, instead preferring to leave them in a locker. That way we're free to move around without having to worry about our stuff. We spent about 5 hours in the Waterpark and had to almost drag our kids out to be able to leave. They offer a convenient solution to bring cash into the park, you can put money into a wristband and the park will refund whatever you don't spend. We experienced most of the slides, varying from ones that need a tube (single, or double) to the superfast Nessies Revenge where you actually catch air between the drops. Such a great time. Was there anything that we didn't like? Yes. The efficiency of the pool employees is not great. When you're in line for a slide you'll be there for a while because it moves slow. Very slow. A few areas, particularly a path that is tilted upwards is very slippery. Some of the amenities were out of service, which for the amount of money you spend is kind of a let down. Because that's the last downside, you best be ready to spend an arm and two ribs to get into the park. Even the lockers are absurdly expensive. We paid $15 for what turned out to be a small sized locker. They have one more size, that's even smaller. Go, have fun, but make sure you bring your wallet!

Good experience my kiddo and family had a great time with the wave pool and the water slides. Do not miss the zip line, it was fun 15$ spent. The changing rooms needs better maintenance, and the restaurants had long wait times. It's a one time visit for the experience, but good to have better preparation on food and clothes for families who visit the place with kids.

It worths every penny you are gonna pay. We enjoyed a lot. Weekdays are not busy😍.

We had a kid's birthday here. I thought I would post some tips and suggestions in case someone else decides to do this. 1. Cabana. We originally rented the Pina Colada Rooftop Lounge because it was the largest space (up to 40 guests), but due to a construction scheduling issue they had to move us to the Sky Vista instead. Since the Sky Vista only allows 25 guests, they let us use both sides so it was actually a nice upgrade. The Sky Vista has nicer seating, TVs, fridges, and is a bit more isolated. For someone who wants a larger party (up to 50 people), I'm sure you could rent both sides of the Sky Vista and just move the dividers yourself. There's a water refill station and a restroom right beside the entrance to the stairs (note that these cabanas are only accessible by stairs). It's a fun location because you can watch the surfers wipe out from above. 2. Birthday Package. We also got the birthday party package for the kids. The food at Sharky's (conveninently adjacent to the party area) was waaaay better than the food I previously had at Beachview Snacks on a previous trip. Note that the birthday party package does not include any decorations or treat bags at all (unless you pay extra). It does include tubes and a meal at Sharky's though, so it's not bad. 3. Cake. For the birthday cake, your only option is Marble Slab. The waterpark will provide plates, napkins, and plastic cutlery if you ask. However, I would advice having the cake delivered 10 minutes before you actually intend to eat it. The cake was frozen rock-hard. Also, they had to have a staff member escort the knife that you use to cut the cake, so she was stuck there for 20 minutes while we waited for it to thaw enough to cut it. Really, as much as I love Marble Slab cake, it would be easier if they just had an option for regular cake. 4. Logistics. If you order a cabana, you can enter with your group through the priority entrance on the main floor. However, this can get a bit chaotic with a larger group. I would recommend starting your party at least 30 minutes, or maybe even an hours after the waterpark opens so you can enter and set up in advance before everyone gets there. (If you do this, double-check to make sure they will let you in without the rest of the party, though.) 5. Value. The kids loved this, even though it was a bit stressful for me...lol. I'm not sure if I would do it this way again - the waterpark was not overly busy so we probably could have just set up camp in one of the dining areas and not paid for the Cabana. It was definitely a nice experience, though.

We’ve been going every year or so on a weekday as a family, from out of town. Our whole family really enjoys it. We always buy passes on some sort of sale, otherwise it’s too expensive. Food prices are ridiculous in my opinion, $7 for a sub par hotdog, $4.50 for extremely over cooked kettle chips! You should be allowed to bring in your own snacks. Family change-room was being renovated so I’m excited to see updates as last time they were dated. All and all a great visit.

10 years ago, it was great! Not anymore.. Their pricing is too much! Plus you have to pay for everything; locker, swimsuit dryer, tubes etc. Maybe next time they'll charge you with the water you will accidentally drink while your swimming in the pool! 🙄😂 Not worth the money!

My girls loved the water park. It was their first time and had so much fun. It was really busy but the lineup went really quick and was maybe a minute or 2 to get in. The wristbands for lockers is good but expensive. The lineups for the slides on weekends are quite long but worth the wait. I think the best part is the wave pool. Waves are nice and big and so much fun especially if using the tubes. Definitely a good way to spend a Saturday afternoon!

Love this mall. Not much of a shopper but with all the fun stuff within makes it the best.

Busy for a weekday - you'll end up waiting in line (5-20 minutes) to go on a slide. The slides are fun! The changing room looks old and was dirty despite the pool just opening when we arrived. The wave pool is awesome, but you end up hitting other people as the waves carry you. Very expensive at $64 a person, and any add-ons like inflatable donuts or the zipline cost extra. For such a high price, it's time they modernize the surroundings. Alcohol should not be sold at a place like this.

Very beautiful place with many useful stores. Unique layout and beautiful views. The security of this area is not very good though, it can be dangerous especially at night. Wouldn't recommend visiting alone but would definitely recommend going with friends or family.

First time seeing the lights. Very nice

They have Beautiful lights, summer festa in summers.

Calm and peace!

Whyte Ave used to be full of funkiness with lots of shops that you can find things nowhere else, street performers and lots of restaurants, you can spend hours walking up and down this place. Now it’s being over run by homeless and those neat shops are closing down, it’s smelly and bunch of bars there with sketchy people. The sidewalks are cracking n can be dangerous

Beautiful street

Looks like something from the 60s

Awesome location

Not notable! We drove through and could find absolutely no reason to stop here!

2022 June 4★ Any science center is great for kids. This science center is a bit smaller than some other science centers, but is in the process of expansion. There are two levels of displays and a movie dome. See the map/pictures for what to expect. Current exhibit is an Apollo display. Great for all ages, but well suited for kids about 12 and under. Expect to spend about 2 hours here. Free parking.

Fun place for kids and adults. Lots of things to do. Current Dino feature exhibit is pretty good (March 23, 2024) see pics. Kids activities are all included in admission which is great.

Definitely geared towards young children (3-10). Lots of fun little activities for them. Adults, less so. Wasted a few hours away here doing things made for children lol. I did learn a few things so there's that. The space section is definitely the best. My siblings loved designing their own rocket and trying to get it to take off. Driving the mock rover was fun but trying to actually accomplish the mission is impossible. But I'm a terrible driver irl so maybe thats why. The Zeidler dome is aight. It's comfy, I almost fell asleep. The main exhibit is James Cameron under the sea which is too bad. Dinosaurs would have been cooler. Parking is free. Gift shop way overpriced but that's too be expected.

One of the best science Centers in western Canada. Lots for kids of all ages, adults too. You can spend a very productive day with the exhibits plus the iMax theatre and planetarium projectors which are both amazing sights and sounds. We also tried on the insight restaurant and the hot grill items were really good and defied expectations in a very positive way. You will enjoy your day here.

We recently purchased a family membership again and were able to enjoy a fun filled day at TWOSE. Since our kids are a little older now, they're definitely more interested in the exhibits and educational aspects associated with TWOSE (not just Curiouscity). It also helps that they make things fun for young and old alike. The Art of the Brick exhibit is amazing. The kids were quite interested in seeing everything that could be made with Lego, but missed out on a lot of the details of the exhibits due to their age. My wife and I were quite astounded by the entire exhibit, especially when it came to the pieces that were included in the artwork and photography. We also enjoyed some fun science activities at the Syncrude Science Stage, the Science Garage, Health Zone, Space Gallery, the Aurora show in the Ziedler Dome. On our way out, we stopped at the RASC Observatory and we all got a chance to see the crest of Venus and safely observe the sun through a number of telescopes. All the staff are very knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. We're definitely looking forward to future trips and using our membership at other science centres, such as the Telus Spark in Calgary.

Went today to experience the partial solar eclipse. There were tons of others there to do the same. We stood in line for the observatory. The line was very long but enjoyable with random info being shared and items like stickers and pens being handed out. Once we got to the observatory there were a few telescopes to look through and not just at the sun. Lots of very neat info shared by the astrophysicists at the observatory thank you.

Incredible place for visit. Learned a lot about the one person submarine of James Cameron. New building added and finally Telus begin to have the nice look it deserves.

A great place for the kiddos to explore and experience learning & fun. There is a great zone for smaller toddlers, and then all the exhibits for kids/adults of all ages. It takes multiple trips to enjoy & take everything in. Absolutely worth going to if you need to burn off some energy for a few hours with the little ones.

Amazing place to go with your family, friends and partner. Growing up, I always came here for field trips and created so many memories here. I highly recommend checking this place out, especially their theater!

They always have different imax shows going on only avilable at twos. Gift shop and cafeteria is pretty expensive. The new remodel couple years ago is really nice. Was very busy on the opening weekend of the dinosaur exhibit.

We love it here! So many great exhibits that are a ton of fun for children of all ages. The interactive of the different exhibits is wonderful. My kids and I went from driving a rover on the moon, to launching rockets, to solving all kinds of puzzles, building cool things, climbing rock walls and so so much more! The cafeteria is decent and affordable which is perfect for refuelling before continuing the fun for the day. Multiple trips are required to get the full enjoyment out of this place!

Lego exhibit was amazing, museum itself was nice too. It was very crowded but didn't have to wait anywhere. Probably more fun for kids, for adults not so much but still worth a visit definitely. Overall very happy we went 🌎🚀

We brought our 5 year old daughter who loves dinosaurs and our 6 month old son today. The dinosaur exhibit was really cool, and she loved the dig sites too. The rest of the science center was really fun and had us all interacting. The dome was also really cool. Even our 6 month old was captivated by the northern lights show. The staff were all amazing. They were friendly, knowledgeable, and eager to share their knowledge with our daughter no matter how many questions she had. The play area had both of our kids entertained for at least an hour. The nursing nook was also a great surprise as I am still breastfeeding my son. It came in handy when he got hungry after some play time in the 3 and under area. The gift shop is a bit pricy, but they had a lot of cool stuff. We're already talking about going back sometime.

Really great educational experience for all ages but even more fun for children under 15. There is also a toddler play area as well. Not posting many photos to not spoil the experience. We chose the Lego exhibit as well as the science Center and well worth it! There is also a park in the back for those who choose to walk around more. Great spot for family time!

Very engaging and stimulating place for the kiddos! Many cool interactive exhibits and interesting displays. The little one had a great time running around all the areas. The dome shows are awesome and they even have a little cafe with food. A great place to waste a hot afternoon.

If you haven't checked this place out, you should. Pull up early and go for a walk on the path close by then head in. Absolutely stunning manifestations of different ecosystems combined into four main areas, my favorite was the Tropical section. There is a cafe on-site with some great options, staff at both are incredibly friendly and you can tell they are passionate about what they do. 10/10 will definitely go again.

I thought this place was much bigger than it actually is, but my expectations are not to blame. The place is good! You can take a glass of wine, listen to live music on occasion, walk through 4 small zones with plants and buy a couple of flowers for yourself under the inspiration of wine and what you see!

The Muttart Conservatory is always a nice place to visit. Admission is fairly inexpensive but it doesn't take long to go though everything. You can see it all in less than two hours, three if you stay for a coffee and visit the gift shop. The surrounding area is a nice park.

Always a beautiful experience with a lot of reviews to tell why. But here's three off-beat things of interest I found on my last visit... 1)If you look close enough you'll find some interesting and highly poisonous plants such as Hellibore. 2)The staff take banana tree cuttings to the nearby zoo for the Elephant to enjoy. 3)You can walk up on the "rooftop" of the pyramids which not only makes for an excellent photo backdrop but is also fun to look into from another perspective.

A must see when visiting Edmonton. Very family friendly (we visited with a 1 year old and a stroller, there were many other families with children of all ages there too). We visited on Thursday which allowed for longer viewing times into the evening. Normally they close at 5pm but are open from 5-9pm on Thurs, Fri, Sat for adults only (according to the website). We purchased our tickets at 4pm and stayed well past 5pm without anyone mentioning the adult only hours. We took our time in each location, going back to two of them to spend more time. Spending what we would consider a good amount of leisure time in each it was around an hour to take in all of the conservatory (also including bathroom breaks for everyone). You can spend considerably more time if you sit on one of the many benches and take in the scenery. Each of the 4 pyramids host a variety of plants all for specific climates: Temperate, Tropical, Arid, and one featuring a variety of flowers and crops. All pyramids are handicap accessible with automatic motion doors giving entry to each. Each pyramid features handicap accessibility to view everything, aside from a small portion of the Arid that does have some stairs. The entire conservatory is completely enclosed allowing access into each pyramid via a central foyer. There are large bathrooms at the central foyer location with many tables and chairs under a mini glass pyramid that shows views of the surrounding 4 larger pyramids.

Beautiful gardens! This was on our top 3 things to do when visiting Edmonton, and it was well worth it. We had a great time. So peaceful and not overly busy

Great place to go visit and buy plants. Admission was a good price and staff were very friendly. The different exhibits are all very well put together with the plants labeled. Very nice place to go to experience nature not usually found in Edmonton!

The pyramids never disappoint! So peaceful and beautiful. Clean and well-cared for. We took our relatives from out of town along and they also enjoyed it. Relaxing area in the indoor courtyard to play board games and sip a coffee. My kids also loved the scavenger hunt in the tropical pyramid. Feature pyramid was by the Orchid Preservation Society and was stunning.

The plants are wonderful and good to breathe, from God but the cafe diner I want to say no one disrespected me. I apologize for that. I was going through some stuff, and I took it up. I hope you guys can forgive me and hope next time I can try your sandwich. I enjoyed the London fog, and I felt it was a long shift; something could trigger people, but someone did disrespect me; it was not, but that's not on you guys. The plants make me feel better, and I just want to say that and see you again in spring. It's getting better and warmer. I had a good time. It was an upside-down moment because I saw a sign that said don't touch the goodies, and people looked at me like I was not touching anything. Happy New Year! All the best.

Loved the place and their collection of plants fro various regions. They have specifically maintained those from various regions according to their suitable climate conditions and temperature. Would have loved to walk by the pyramids at night from the outside, unfortunately couldn't find a path. Overall a great place to explore plants from various regions and truly a botanical paradise. Their Christmas festive offering is a treat to watch

We had a wonderful time! Managed to catch the last day of the spring feature. So beautiful. Can't wait to see the summer feature!

Worthwhile to visit. There is free parking but the LRT is set up to run there soon but not yet ready as of July 2022. There are 4 separate pyramids each with different temperate zones for their respective plants. Lots of good photo ops, wedding photos, etc. There is a coffee shop with assorted goodies, and outside tables for nice days and gift shop to.

The location is good, there is a public transport stop nearby, and there is a large parking lot on the territory near the entrance. Immediately at the entrance is a seasonal area with tables and a cafe. Friendly and smiling employees at the reception. Botanical gardens are a large space with its own oases, tropical, asian and various ecosystems. Everyone will find their favorite plant here. On the way out, you can buy some types of flowers. A charming atmosphere prevails in each of the pyramids with musical accompaniment. A modern solution is a code next to the plant, scan it and you will be able to learn about the plant on the website. Thematic events are often held and there are beautiful photo zones.

We had been here once before but decided to visit again to see the special Lego exhibit. Theres a tropical pyramid, an arid, and temperate one. The fourth area is the special exhibit one. All three gardens are nice but each one is quite small. The cost is $14.50 per adult and there's free parking. There is also a small coffee shop with snacks. Overall worth seeing at least once but definitely wished it was bigger.

Absolutely beautiful place to visit. We took my mother in law to the Muttart Conservatory as she is visiting from the UK. She was so impressed with the experience. We loved the lego room and the little bits of lego found in and amongst the plants. The experience from start to finish was impressive. We made our way through the 4 different pyramids and took our time viewing the different plants. We also stopped in the cafe to have a little snack and cold drink. Lovely desserts and drinks with great prices. Very impressed with the experience.

This place exceeded my expectations. For two adults, it was under $30. The pyramids were so unique, and beautiful. It was like taking a vacation around the world. I recommend wearing a tshirt and sweater, as the temperature changes throughout the different pyramids. I was blown away by how many different plants were in each of the pyramids. Highly recommend checking it out!

A wonderful way to spend a weekday afternoon… out and about with our grandson… not too overly big .. but big enough to be engaging and enjoyable to walk around … we had an amazing day… searching for dinosaurs during the Giants in the mist exhibit … a bonus today for residents was we get a free entrance into the zoo as long as used within the next 3 weeks

Muttart Conservatory is a really great place to spend an hour or two. The difference between seasons makes this a great place to hit up a few times a year to see how the plants go through their cycles. There is always something new to see with the "Featured" biom! Great date idea.

this is one of the highly recommended places you should visit in Edmonton it's absolutely fascinating you'll be amazed and that's a promise timer facility is very well taken care of everything is meticulously maintained the plants are something out of a poet you can go there and relax and just lose yourself in the Beauty and charm of the plants

Very informative place to learn something about plants around the world. It’s divided into 4 zones, from the dessert plant to tropical plants, they have lots kind of collections. Every plant has its ID card explain its origin and feature, there is even QR code you can scan for more. We love the Asian plant zone lots of unique plants here. Hard to imagine how to keep those plants alive all season round. They have one zone for seasonal plants at this time (around Dec-Jan) they are display plants about Christmas. Lots parking near entrance, you will need to register you plate after you buy the admission.

Always a pleasurable visit. These indoor gardens are a relief during Albert's long winters. Glad to have such an amazing facility in our province. 4 pyramids each with their own climate, with one of them changing theme throughout the year. A must visit!

Great indoor activity for kids and adults. There is a coffee shop where you can find goodies and food. 4 different weather's represented. Entrance fees are really reasonable. Yearly membership under $60

Had a great time visiting Muttart! The staff are incredibly friendly and knowledge. It was my first visit so they gave me the rundown when I first arrived and made personal recommendations on their favorite things to look for. Once inside the pyramids, you are free to just walk and wander or sit and enjoy the greenery on one of the many benches. If you have questions or are curious about specific plants, the people working are more than happy to show you around or tell you about the different species they have. The feature pyramid is quite cool. They had it set up as a dinosaur feature when I went but the lady there explained to me that it changes every couple of months and it’s always something different. I can’t wait to visit again in the summer!

We are so thrilled every time we get to hear the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra... especially when they play the classics! This Mozart & Mendelssohn Concert was wonderful! And the atmosphere is lovely! Best yet were the staff: I have arthritic knees so the tickets I was given as a gift had me seated in a place where I needed to use stairs. So I asked the staff if I could switch my tickets to a different more convenient spot and they said they had tickets set aside exactly for that type of situation 😊. I got to sit and enjoy the concert in comfort🥰. I highly recommend this wonderful center!

This was an evening well spent. The music concert featured the works of 7 living composers and the highlight for me was the performance of Exquisite Fires, and Restless Oceans; it was the perfect climax to an already electrifying evening. I loved the ambience and how our very own Edmonton Poet Laureate, Titilope Sonuga illuminated our hearts with her powerful words.

My Favourite place in all of Edmonton ! Very comfortable atmosphere and just amazing acoustics. Worth every penny. Can’t Recommend this place enough. They have a few bars to get drinks from along with a coffee shop and sometimes a popcorn stand depending on the event. The staff are just fantastic ! Very helpful and polite. Any event here surely won’t disappoint. I Always leave here with a good feeling .

Loved this experience. First time for the ESO, but what an amazing experience it was. The acoustics are truly remarkable and a fantastic piece of engineering. Will definitely go back .

It’s always a treat to be flooded with live, world class music and such a wide variety of performances for all ages and eras in a top tier facility. The drinks and snacks are a nice and they allow them in the main hall with holders on the new seats. Parking is a bit of a hassle/ walk but it’s a nice part of the city for a short stroll.

BUYERS BE AWARE. WINSPEAR has lost its classy touch. 2022 May EDIT This place went from 5 stars to 3 because of the damn popcorn! I get it the winspear took a big hit because of covid and they gotta get some of that money back. But constant popcorn chatter is so annoying. Especially during the quiet scenes and you cant even concentrate on the beautiful music. I could see for a comedy show or something that popcorn could be okay but when we pay a lot of money to LISTEN to John Williams. I would expect no popcorn at an event like this would be a no brainer for the lead organizers. OLD REVIEW AMAZING! Wow! If you haven't already, you HAVE to listen to John William's Beautiful music from the star wars show! Absolutely fantastic venue! I've sat in four different spots over the years, both low, high and to the side. And Every spot is awesome! It all comes down to what your personal preference.

It has been my privilege to perform here over the years as a substitute percussionist with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra, the Royal Canadian Artillery Band, and with a few other great organisations. The production staff are extremely helpful with respect to supporting me given the unique and cumbersome logistical needs percussionists tend to have. Thank you so much for all the support and for the beautiful venue! Here are some photos from over the years - such great memories - particularly Tommy Banks' memorial service! :-)

Beautiful place to attend concerts, I personally attended the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra last month and it was simply a great experience. The building is basically an open space entrance when you walk in, they have to let scanners (at least at my event) stationed around the entrance. There are bars stationed around the entrance and we were allowed to bring our drinks into the auditorium. It is very beautiful, open and bright inside. The sound is amazing and you can hear everything perfectly. We sat in the orchestra centre area and we were basically centre of the place and it was perfect! Definitely recommend to attend a show here if you get the chance!

The venue was fantastic, I honestly don't think there's a bad seat in the place. The concert was phenomenal and I would recommend it to anyone. Drinks were a little pricey but no more than expected for such a venue. I do recommend being early though as they don't have their own parking.

A wonderful place! Perfect for all ages to enjoy. Attended the "A Lightly Classical Christmas " ES0. Amazing 🎄and "The Magical Music of Harry Potter "

The Winspear has amazing acoustics for sound. The sound was amazing, the show we caught was amazing and the whole interior is very nice. I will be coming back for other performances for sure!

Incredible theater with very welcoming staff. ESO concerts are awesome!

Watched the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra perform “Hollywood Hits” absolutely stunning acoustics. Fantastic performance, especially the rendition of Skyfall featuring Celeigh Cardinal. Aiming to go again for the upcoming Ennio Morricone performance

What a fabulous venue ❤️ absolutely love this place and the performances. What a great jewel in Edmonton 🥰 We caught the last performance before the summer break and it was special. A one of a kind performance. It was so nice to meet each member of the symphony. Right from the person's very first performance to the person's 62 years performing with the symphony 🥰 What a wheelbarrow full of talent lead by an amazing conductor who has a great sense of humor. A great night that show cased great talent a standing O

A nice night out with the Symphony's pairing series. A glass of wine and two great pieces of music. And post concert you could try out one of the bow and string instruments that the very patient staff encouraged you to play.

Enjoyed the show today, permanece was impeccable, I personally enjoyed the closing piece the most. I noticed Harry Potter musicals will be featured next month, looking forward to that.

Filmed the HBO series "The last of Us" here! Pretty proud they picked Edmonton legislature as a major set piece for the film!

Very good experience. The people right from the policeman at the entrance to the other employees were very friendly and polite. Our guide Mr.Wade was very knowledgeable and kept us fully engrossed with his history lessons . Plus it was absolutely free!!

Beautiful views at night. Building is currently under construction as of 5/14/22 and there is scaffolding around the top section.

I love learning about history. Alberta's is one I'm less familiar with and it was very interesting in context. I also loved the architecture tidbits as that is also fascinating to me. The advice about extra time to find the right entrance is accurate. Our tour guide Sam was great!

There were lots of things to see and learn about on the tour. To process everything and get the full exprience, one should come two or three times. The building is much more majestic and magnificient from the inside

Very organized tour. Tour guide was very friendly and kind. The tour is very informative. You are allow to take as many photos as you want.

A lovely way to spend a summer day! The grounds are beautiful and the building is quiet nice. Take the guided tour of the Legislature itself as it is very educational and still fun. There is often a few food carts near the fountain, and the wading fountain is fun for the little ones.

Great tour from Michael! Very informative and easy going. Let us ask 100 questions (98% of which he could answer) 10/10 would recommend!

Finally got time get into this beautiful building Really enjoyed the tour and learned a lot, we also went to the gifts shop and bought some interesting items.

Beautiful architecture to be sure, but also very important to attend demonstrations here when they're for a cause in which you believe. Generally a safe and friendly environment regardless of whether you're just walking around and enjoying the sights and waterfalls, or there during a demonstration. Enjoy! :-)

It's an incredible building to visit, and the organised tour is very well informative of the history of the building and the establishment in Alberta. You need to register before going for a tour, which is free of charge. One staff member will take the groups for a tour of the building, and it takes about an hour to complete.

The visitor experience is great. The guided tours are very informative, don't take long at all (almost an hour), and they balance nicely history, art/Architecture, and civic education

A nice educational tour that can help to learn much more that what we read. After a security check, we headed towards the main hall where a guide will usually welcome you. The entire tour takes around 45 minutes (or so). Just to add on, a nice collection of flowers outside in the park as well. All in all a great day spent to learn some portions of History !!

I really enjoyed the building tour. It's free and was very informative, and the staff are all very friendly/welcoming. Strongly recommend booking a spot online in advance.

The Edmonton equivalent of Canada's Wonderland, but indoors. Incredible that they managed to fit it all indoors and offer such a pretty great assortment of rides for all ages. Some of the more interesting rides were also not operational at the time we visited. Fun for a rainy day. We came in a Friday afternoon, not too many people and lots of rides only had 1-5 people.

This was my first time, but most definitely won't be my last time; taking my daughter to this indoor amusement park. The facility appears to be clean, well run, and the attendees are very safety conscious. I would recommend that you get there early and stay late.

We had a great day here. Was definitely pricey for 2 adults and to tall children under 12. But that is thanks to Covid-19. Also a few of the rides could have done with 2 attendants to speed up the lines. But to go back after 2+ years for us it was a good family outing!

The rides and attractions that were open were excellent and fun! It is unfortunate that many attractions like the famous Mind Bender, Drop of Room, Haunted House and others are closed. This is a great place to take your kids as the rides are designed for both adults and children to ride together. Of course the fact that it is inside means that weather is never a factor when coming here which is a huge bonus over the outdoor parks. The cotton candy ducks and characters are so original and cute! What a fantastic idea. The Trouble ride is amazing! It is the first time that I have come off a ride truly exhausted! It would be nice for the operators to offer a half day pass for those that come near the end. I am not sure that it is appropriate to be charging for a full day to someone that comes in 3 hours before close.

Indoor theme park right inside West Edmonton mall. Kids will have a lot of fun. Lots of rides its a bit too pricy but worth it, check out their wesite for current pricing. Follow for more reviws and

Lots of rides. My kids enjoyed their time here. They love the laser tag.

Always a fun place, but it got crowded, and a bit messy. The kids area needs work to make it just a bit prettier. Be prepared for the price of an all day pass, even your little one will run you 56 bucks. But it's a fun place, always good.

Largest indoor amusement park in North America. 64 cad dollar per person for all rides. Get there early so you don’t have to wait in a long line. There were 2 or 3 rides that are closed when we were there and they are doing renovations. You can spend easily 4 hours in there so come prepare.

Soooooo much fun!! This place is a must visit in Edmonton!! The roller coasters and rides all surprised me with how fun they actually were and all had like unexpected things! It was so awesome that there was no lines either so you could do multiple rides multiple times! So great! I definitely recommend going on a week day if you can because it was $20 cheaper than the weekend!

The kids had a blast, I had to purchase a ride along pass for my 2 yr old. The rollercoaster was the longest wait time.

Had a really nice time here on Thursday. I hadn't realized that they are open shorter hours on Thursday. However, also had reduced pricing. So felt like we got our money's worth. A couple of rides were closed for Maintenence. Would recommend, especially on Mon-Thurs when it's a little cheaper. Since it's now owned by Hasbro they have a whole board game theme and characters walking around that you can take pics with.

Loved every second spent here on the day of Christmas it was crowded but less than expected. The rides are fantastic and for every age group. Coming from Dubai I found that void in Calgary I wish Calgary also has something like GalaxyLand.

Very fun but very expensive. Toddler time is the way to go if you have young kids. Much cheaper

Price of entry is very steep, not worth it if you consider that most of the time, at least a third of their rides are out of service. And most of their rides don't allow kids under certain height, so if you have young children, this is not the ideal attraction for them. You can get a better experience for them for much lesser price somewhere else. The ride times are also extremely short. By the time your child is getting into the fun, they stop and the attendants (mostly teens themselves) abrasively rush the kids out. Not a very memorable and kind experience for the little ones. Also make sure to NOT put the wrist bands on the kids because if they lose it (which is very likely), some attendants won't let them on rides. (The more reasonable will if you show them the receipt). All in all, NOT a good Bang for your Buck(s)

Nice indoor place to visit in Alberta (Edmonton), especially in winters. Kids can avail most of the rides as well. Ticket price is on a higher side, compared to number and quality of rides. Since, galaxyland is in west Edmonton mall, you will have number of food snd shopping options.

Loving the New Hasbro theme for rides and general Decor 👌. I have visited Galaxyland many times over the years and was never interested in small train to take the tour around park..... But now it has been upgraded to the Monoply train, and we were happy to take a ride and "pass go" 🚂

My kids had fun, and we had smiles for most of the day, but with half of their rides down and a good portion of games and vending machines down, you'd think they would adjust their prices. Stay away until they get their rides fixed. 3 stars. Staff, for the most part, contribute to a good customer experience.

They definitely put Hasbro branding on everything since I went last. It's pretty much what you'd expect. Without mindbender big rollercoaster it skews younger. If you get a daily pass and spend all day it's your best value. $6 a ticket otherwise seems overpriced.

Cool place to take Photos. The LED lights on the bridges light up at night makes for an awesome shot.

A beautiful high level view of Edmonton’s skyline. Has a nice park for casual evening walk and conversation. The changing light on the bridge makes it so beautiful too. And a good spot for some romantic pictures.

One of the best places to have a nice walk or do your morning jog. The bridge offers some nice views of downtown Edmonton.

Riding the trolley on the top is highly recommended. Nothing more frustrating...the peoplwho stop before driving onto the bridge, it's free flow!!!!

Great Bridge for a sight see and pictures.. lots to do on either end .. white Ave near by on the south side and jasper Ave near by on the north side ... with lots of trails 👣 on both sides .. many places to bbq or picnic.. or even go for a stroll with friends and or family 👪 also lots and lots of trails to bike ride if interested.. with the river valley for other things to do

Beautiful view of the High Level Bridge from Kinsmen Park.

Nice walk, plenty of trails nearby, excellent views of downtown.

Historic Bridge, one of the highest bridge in the world. The bridge with LED light so it could light up with different colors at night and special events.

The High Level Bridge is a bridge that spans the North Saskatchewan River in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. A view of the Alberta Legislative Building is visible from the bridge amidst the smoke that covers Edmonton (during the period of the visit). Other than that, great sight from River Valley Park.

Breathtaking view specially in spring and summer. Watching sunsets and sunrises on the bridge is one of my favorite. I have taken 100 sunsets photos from here and shared it on instagram! Visit @_100sunsets_ instagram account to see all of them! The side

I love this bridge! Not so much at rush hour haha but especially on the trolly or on an e- scooter! And watching it light up at night is breathtaking!

Iconic bridge over the North Saskatchewan River from downtown to south side. It’s over 100 years old and has become even more entrenched in the minds of Edmontonians and is part of everyone’s minds eyes of the river valley. There is car traffic and a trolley that goes over the bridge where trains used to. Both sides of the bridge have pedestrian and bicycle traffic. This is just an amazing bridge and I would recommend not only driving across it but also walking and taking the trolley across.

This is the best place to visit at day or night. Night view hits different for those who likes night life. At day you can go near the river could click some timing shots. There are many scooters available everywhere near bridge. Safe at night. Just near the bridge, there is a public parking free. Or you can go straight to downtown and park you car there. Not much traffic at night just the pedestrian walking . Make sure you wear mask even though you’re outside.

Nicest bridge in Edmonton. And certainly in Canada. From May to October the old street car cross the valley on top of the bridge.

The kids really enjoyed the Edmonton Valley Zoo. A number of buildings weren't open when we went, as some animals were under care, which is unfortunate but what can you do. The animals that we did see looked to be in good health. I believe it's priced reasonably well for what you get, but the Calgary Zoo is definitely a better zoo in my opinion. Unfortunately the Calgary Zoo is quite a bit more expensive at over 3x the cost for both adult and child admissions, which also doesn't include parking.

Had a heck of a good time, took my 9 year old for her first zoo experience and my first in 30 years, was a lot of fun! My only complaint was no paper maps and the app map I found near unusable so we just winged it. Was great fun otherwise!

What a fantastic zoo! Very reasonable prices! The facility is well laid out - perfect size for my 5 year old to walk, my 2.5 year olds did most of it but ended with a wagon. And plenty of washrooms and garage cans. It was very clean and well maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly and informative for any questions we had about the animals. The Cafe was perfect to grab a coffee and walk around, and great for getting the kids snacks and a juice. The animals themselves were great. I loved how close we could get to some of the animals for a very intimate experience. Wonderful experience, definitely going back.

It is good value, some amazing animals. The staff have so much passion and care for what they do. Took the time to talk with us and just made the experience amazing. Got to say never seen a house cat a Zoo, hope it's happy. The only thing that really was not great to see is the cow and which industry sponsored it. To me a zoo cow should not be sponsored by the Alberta Beef Producers, I truely believe this hurts the image of Zoo and what they stand for, Conservation. Not being a livestock resource.

It was a nice way to spent a day here at the zoo. See a lot of animals here but some were not available on the day I visited. Red Panda was cute and we see goat on top of the building walking. There are lego built animal displaying there as well and they all looked amazing.

Small zoo. Had a pretty good time. Due to bird flu could not see any of the birds but that is very understandable. Some of the exhibit are small thou. Much work has been done there thou since my last visit. Disappointing that all food sales stalls were closed. Maybe time of yr? But that meant no were to eat at the entire time we were there.

Very fun for the whole family, not to mention an affordable day out. We had an enjoyable experience and will definitely be returning to visit again. Sadly, the red panda was still sleeping but we managed to catch a few snaps of it in the tree catching some zzz's.

Lots to see and do! There's even a carousel for kids 5 and under. You can ride for free or donation. Zoo was clean and friendly staff.

Lucy the elephant was not out today, which was too bad because I wanted to see her. Newly opened zoo (2019), so it is small but such a lovely zoo.

Staff very helpful. Borrowed a wheelchair for a member of our family. A little difficult pushing on some of the hills (up and down). Winter sand on some paths need to be cleared. Most of the animals were available for viewing. Enjoyed the "meet the keeper" at the lynx cage. She answered all our questions, very knowledgeable. We were very fortunate to see Lucy the elephant. She spends most of her time out of the view of the public.

The animals had shade and various toys and seemed well cared for which is the most important goal for a zoo. The zoo is on the smaller side but it’s still worth a visit. The cafeteria is newly renovated and food prices as expensive for what you get. $9 for a chicken burger - see picture - made with fried-from-frozen chicken and a single piece of lettuce and tomato. They were out of salads and cheese for cheeseburgers but the most shocking thing was a lack of vegetarian options. There is no veggie burger for example. In a zoo! I’m not vegetarian but found this very odd.

Personally recommend!!! Amazing zoo and stuff. Their tour program Animals talk is very informative for adults and for kids as well over around zoo locations. Planning your time with family, friends, even alone to walk over here and jump out of your daily routine!)

Pretty smallish as zoos go, but we found it to be a very pleasant place to spend an afternoon. Plus - they have a red panda! I didn't even know there was such a thing. Something else I've never seen before at a zoo - an elephant (and Indian elephant - a well-behaved old girl) that they allow to roam free within certain areas of the zoo. Great little coffee shop inside the the front gate too!

Went on Family Day and when we got there the parking lot was closed, apparently becuase it was full, so we parked across the road at the dog park. When it did walk through the car park to the zoo a few minutes later there were lots of open parking spots, so I'm not really sure what was going on there. The zoo isn't going to blow you away with its selection of animals, but it is fun for a couple of hours on a nice winter day.

What a great first experience for my daughter and us as well! The zoo is well kept 👌 the staff were awesome 👍 very interactive and informative 🙂 got to see almost all of the animals 😀 we were even lucky enough to see Lucy hanging out at the train ride loop 🐘!! Overall a great experience for the family, it wasn't busy at all which made it even better!!

Worth a visit in the summer time, very exciting for children. The picnic location is well suited for hanging with people of all ages .

Not all that much to see in the winter. I was with a small family group with two children aged 4 and 6. They were not as engaged as they might have been had there been more youth targeted activities or content.

I visited the Edmonton Valley Zoo yesterday with my 4 year old. It was our first visit there. We really had a fun time. We were lucky to spot a lot of animals - maybe becoz we went first thing in the morning. My kid really enjoyed his time there. It was so much fun for him. Two highlights for him were to spot the elephant and the train ride.

A great place both in winter and in the warm season! In winter, everything is decorated with lanterns and you can walk more like in a park, looking at animals.

Traveling from saskatoon, we did the basic mall trip. Waterpark and galaxy land but we decided to add this to our last day. What a great choice! The zoo is a great size (not huge like Calgary). They've done a great job with the park as they've created an inviting atmosphere for families with nice walking trails and beautiful exhibits. Definitely will go back.

The zoo lights were amazing all the staff were great. We had a bad experience with who ever was playing the grinch. He was a little aggressive and my 12 year old was in tears for the rest of the visit. He need to remember these are kids even if they are a little bigger.

Lovely place. But it was so cold i couldn't enjoy the place fully. I would love to go there again during summer. I think i would enjoy it if i do.

Huge park that hosts tons of different festivals. We enjoyed Heritage Days this past weekend and had a fantastic time. The weather was great and the different "countries" we visited were great! Music, food, beautiful costumes abounded. Looking forward to our next festival!

I love bird watching so I went to Hawrelak Park. There are bird feeders in the park that provides the opportunity to observe various bird species. I saw: Waxwings Woodpeckers Squirrel 🐿️ (not an avian species of course 😅 but I love them) Magpies Black Capped Chickadees This is a place where you can go and recover your cognitive strength :)

Great place! Had a great time with the family. We looked around at the ice sculptures and kids did some night skating. Definitely recommend this to anyone.

It is so fun to explore kinds of birds and Canada geese in summertime at this area. The park closed in March 2023 for rehabilitation work to upgrade facilities, pathways, and infrastructure. It is expected to reopen in early 2026.

Great trails and love the skate rink with the fire at night. Clean facilities and nice views of the river.

1.2-mile loop trail inside Edmonton, Alberta. Generally considered one of beautiful parks routes, it takes an average of 30 min to complete. This is a popular trail for birding, hiking, and walking, but you can still enjoy some solitude during quieter times of day

I love hawrelak park. Beauty in the middle of the city. Paddle boots available to rent. Picnic sites can be reserved although some sites have trash after weekend parties. Generally very clean though. Fountain in the middle of man made lake is cool. Lot of shade from trees for any hot day.

from stone castles to ice castles, these beautiful man-made constructions are built every year at Hawrelak Park with walls 10 feet (3m) thick. Depending on the weather, they’re open for tours from the end of December or early January and for as long as the season allows.

Nice and huge park. When the pond freezes you can skate on it. There's also an indoor area where you can setup and wear your skates while being warm.

Such a beautiful park ,I just found out you can have your dog as long as he's leashed!! So exciting!! They have some beautiful art work!! Worth a visit for sure!!

Looking forward to the reopening! I've always loved this massive park for its great picnic spots, walking paths and views. The massive tent also makes for a popular venue for concerts, performances and other cool community events. The lake is also beautiful year round

I loved the sculptures made in the park, there’s always something new in here, every season has its own colour. Ice skating for kids and adults, jogging and biking and walking can do many things in winters Spring is here and park is so very busy on weekends, all benches and all the bbq were occupied, Parking lots we’re almost full.

Lots of geese , a few sea gulls and some different types of ducks.A very scenic and beautiful place.Lots of greenery . A good amount of bench and a few big rocks to take amazing photos on. If you go in the right season you will see a-lot of baby ducks and geese. Lots of biking and skating space. Lots of beautiful trails sometimes they get crowded.We think its one of the best parks in Edmonton.

Gorgeous! Building is a piece of art by itself. Very nice and knowledgeable staff, well kept building, and great prices. For art however, the facility is highly limited in any actual awe inspiring or interesting artwork. Essentially limited to art made by a boring 70 year old from Nova Scotia, or Nunavut. Would be very nice to see a less cultural art exhibit and a more awe inspiring/modern exhibit of art. Overall 7/10

Recently popped into the AGA for Canada Day and brought along a first time visitor. Lovely visit as usual, and there is always something new to see and learn. Appreciated that staff were on hand to explain concepts as well.

Very unique museum, features a variety of different types of artwork. I particularly enjoy the large selection of abstract pieces. Modern architecture and the overall cleanliness of the place add to the positive experience.

Very nice and modern building, a visit for the architecture alone is worth it. Being a relatively small museum, the art collection is pretty small however the exhibits rotate seasonally. If art is your thing, it is worth a visit if you’re in the area. Make sure to read the admission prices carefully as there are many discounts and free entries available for different reasons (ie bus pass holder etc.). The gift shop has many unique local items as well.

Very interesting exhibitions, a must do if you are visiting Edmonton. I do it each time and I am always surprised. The museum building is also beautiful.

AGA exhibit right is one of the best. Please visit soon and see "Inheritance " Maude Lewis and the 5artist1love show.visit every floor starting L1 and make your way up. 2 of the exhibits are currently being changed.

Very awesome museum to visit if you like paintings and arts. Various exhibitions ongoing and each one have different features. The building is unique and looks contemporary. Has 3 stories to visit and ticket is not expensive. Estimate time is like around 1 hours to see all the gallery. Parking on street side or underground.

Pleasantly surprised how kid friendly this place was. I'd forgotten about free open house last Thursday of the month between 4 pm to 7 o'clock closing. I remembered just in time today.

Wheelchair and stroller friendly the AGA is conveniently located with LRT access; students and senior discounts for entrance & free on last Thursday evenings 5pm-7Pm; Adult open studios every Thursday and currently - Warhol to Banksy highlighting the Pop Art Movement opened in June and is excellent..

Cool architecture inside. The first exhibit happened to have my favorite botanical photographs from Karl Blossfeldt. Original silver gelatin prints as well as other photographer pieces with cyanotype, albumin, and daguerreotype. They had a free entrance after 4pm.

Love how the AGA does a free entry night the last Thursday of every month. This month had incredible exhibits. Banksy & Warhol! The friendliest and informative staff every time we come. 💕💕

Grate place for all family, ofcourse if you like art, or want to try it, discover something beyond dayly routine ! Can recomend it for 300 % Downside- the art gallery located in the downtown of Edmonton, so lots of homeless. Good thing, not all of them vomiting and deficating in the midle of the street...

Nice facility but lacking in terms of volume, it's rather small and modest. Depends on the exhibits they have on display when you go and if your interest in them. It is currently Pop Art like Andy Warhol and Banksy and such. This was great and the galleries are clean and very cleanly laid out. It isn't huge in terms of volume as it seems most of it is on loan from a single private collector. The other galleries, especially the third floor video galleries are VERY avant garde and takes a particular mindset to interpret, which I do not possess, humbly speaking. The bottom floor exhibition was closed when I went so there wasn't too much to see.

The Edmonton Art Gallery is a true masterpiece! With its excellent collection of contemporary and traditional art, it's the perfect place to immerse yourself in culture and creativity. The exhibits are thoughtfully curated and the space is beautifully designed. The current Black and White exhibit is thought provoking. It's definitely a must-see for any art lover visiting Edmonton.

A beautiful spot! Keep an eye out for occasional free tickets for visits!

The game was great and the club seats in section 103 were a good size and comfortable, but best to plan to fill your belly and bladder before and/or after the game! Everything is CRAZY expensive! Couldn't find anything to drink that was less than $12! A bag of popcorn and fountain drink was $17.50! Would definitely go again, but would plan ahead to not want anything to eat or drink.

This is a great arena to come and watch hockey and concerts. Every seat has a great view of the action. The food is a bit expensive though. The food is alright. The scoreboard is awesome and big. Love coming here. Watching the world juniors is awesome here.

Beautifully designed concert venue. Prices are moderate for concerts. Last minute concerts can be purchased pretty cheaply. Wide variety of tasty foods even though they are a bit pricey. Many popular bands play here and there are many hockey games with popular teams. Workers are decent, a family member was told he could keep his plastic water bottle and they ended up throwing it out when he went through the metal detector.

Amazing experience. Lots of food outlets, great beer, lots of music and fun. All seats have amazing view. Easy checkin. Underground parking that can be reserved online on game days.

DONT SAY *SMOKE FREE* IF YOUR BUILDING IS FULL OF SMOKE. Very disgusted in the way they implemented and enforced thier new "smoke-free" policy. I will never ever see another concert from Rogers place again even if it was my favorite band in the vip for free. Well aside from the 50cent concert not even consisting of 50% of 50cent. If you happen to be some of the unlucky people who got tickets too late or got the cheap ones. Let me tell you that theres no elbow space and barely leg room for your legs, let alone room for someone else to be able to get by. Thats not the worst part, worst part is the thier new policy that prevents people from coming back in and forfitting their tickets. So forget your id phone anything, you cant come back in. But as for smokers they are also not allowed back in, do you think they are going to forfit thier ticket? No, so now people who are allergic to smoke now have to suffer through a concert, but now are not able to go outside for some fresh air. I feel the policy punishes the non-smokers more than it does punishing the smokers not to smoke. Youve basically made a free to smoke discretely policy. Plus drinks are 20 bucks a can. 16.78 plus taxes. Rogers place is also NO longer the official home arena for the Oilers as well.

This is a great venue for concerts or Oilers games. For concerts everything is state of the art and sound is pristine. They also have a great seating setup for the concerts. Oilers games are a great atmosphere and always a ton of fun. The only downside would be pricing for food and drinks. They do have a good selection of food though especially in the club area. The selection of alcoholic drinks is also very good. I would rate the good and drinks a 7.9/10. Great place to go to an event.

I have been to Rogers Place once to watch the Oilers play, and I have got to say that the building is absolutely astounding. There is plenty of room inside, and paid parking available nearby as Rogers Place is located in the downtown core. All the effort the men and women have put into the building is greatly appreciated. I look forward to visiting Rogers again one day soon.

First hockey game ever was Oilers v Toronto Maple Leafs. Enjoyed the game and watching the lil U7 kids play during the break. Loved the energy from fans and lively atmosphere. Elevators were busy and cramped but this was expected with the game. I think the centre could use more elevators.

What a great place to watch a hockey game, there is no bad seat in the house, we have sat in box seats before and regular seats, what a beautiful arena, easy to get in and out, of course there is some walking but with a building of this magnitude, you get your steps in. Lots of elevators to assist in getting up and down floors. We just went to our first Stanley cup playoff game there on Sunday night, May 22nd. It was Amazing, we live in Calgary, so I wore my Calgary jersey, my husband has been a loyal fan of the oilers for as long as he loved hockey, he wore a cap to the game that he has had since the 1990 Stanley cup playoffs. What an experience and I have to say, there were some Calgary jersey’s there, a few of us in the river of orange and blue. You oilers fans were great to me as I am sure you were to other Calgary fans. Awesome night, spectacular arena and the ice district and areas around. What a game, hoping Calgary ties the series in game four, I will be watching that game from the comfort of my home😊Go 🔥🔥🔥Go

The eagles concert itself was great but for a 425 million dollar rink it's no more comfortable than any arena I have been in, super tight seating and very steep stairs pretty annoying considering everyone has been raving about it. Also we were in section 220 row 6 ,$ 170 seats and there was no bass at all in the mix,nothing, and no percussion from a very big set up ,lots of stuff being used and nothing , nadda,.what we did hear was good,very good guitar drum and vocals .but it lacked alot from the bottom end and again that was disappointing considering the word was it was a good venue for music albeit for a hockey rink. I am a life long musician and am not some lout, would be interesting to hear from people in other areas of the rink and what kind of sound they heard.

This place is a world class venue with world class staff. We stayed for an oilers game and enjoyed ourselves thoroughly except for the cost of everything. This place feels like the cost of everything is 500 % (estimated) over inflation for literally everything; and I mean everything. It’s So expensive. ($$$$$). Unfortunately I can only take my families to maybe a game a year. Too bad for families who can’t go at all.

The experience I had at Rogers Place was life changing. This was because of the Nickelback concert. The staff were also helpful and great. I had an interesting conversation with one of the staff.

Watched the away game watch party and it was awesome! You can feel the energy in the arena with all the fans watching and cheering together. It was good that we found out that Rogers Place is open and able to seat for $5 for away games like today. Just a little problem with the washrooms after the game but aside from that, it's great.

Nice place but drinks are crazy prices so did not buy any..concert venue was great

Drove into town for the Jonas Brothers concert! This was my first time at Roger's Place and the arena did not disappoint! We sat in section 221 and the seats were comfortable! I normally have issues with upper bowl seats considering I am a bigger girl but these seats were very comfortable and left me with plenty of hip room! The stairs to the seats are a little intense if you're not a fan of heights so just be aware, obviously the railing is a great thing to hold onto lol

Beautifully laid out brand new arena. Plenty of food and drinks options. Great views from the seats. Was a real pleasure to watch the hometown crowd watch the Oilers play!

Saw the JONAS BROTHERS last night. Excellent concert. I didn't get the greatest of pictures/video, but here's a few. The opening act was dreadful(sorry) so we'll just skip them.

1st time there... can't even describe how amazing of a venue this place is!!! Absolutely incredible facility and the fact that the oilers won made it even better!!! I will do everything in my power to get back to watch another gm.

My Dad and I were on a Mission to see the Rangers play a game in Every Arena someday! His Birthday was also two days earlier. We really had fun at this Arena and would definitely want to come back someday when we complete our List! We're halfway there now!

Rogers Place really is an awesome place for concerts as well as hockey. There's a reason that Edmonton is the place to go for concerts. Between the great restaurants nearby & the great hotels within walking distance, it's great to get a chance to go to the arena. I saw Shania there recently & she didn't disappoint. Looking forward to future hockey games & concerts.
