It’s family day this weekend, and there are so many things to do with the kids in Edmonton. If you haven’t had the chance to explore the Royal Tyrrell Museum, it’s one of nine sites around the province offering up free admission to celebrate Family Day.
Spending time with family and friends is the most important part of Family Day. I can’t think of a better way to do so than exploring the many amazing places in our province. Free admission to heritage sites and museums makes Alberta’s culture and history accessible for everyone.
Ricardo Miranda, Minister of Culture and Tourism
Albertans love their provincial parks and the opportunity to connect with nature. This Family Day, Alberta Parks is thrilled to once again offer free, family-friendly activities. A provincial park is an hour away or less from most communities so I encourage everyone to get outside, enjoy the outdoors and make memories.
