CBC is proud to sponsor the 2025 Edmonton Heritage Festival

A mosaic of multiculturalism converges on Borden Park for a three-day celebration of food, music and culture. Join us to celebrate Canada's diverse cultures from August 2 to 4, 2025.

This free festival offers a variety of global cuisine, entertainment, educational exhibits and crafts. Enjoy cultural dances and folk music performances throughout the day, and explore the delicious food available for purchase from the many pavilions.

Visit the Heritage Festival website to learn more, including information about getting there and the festival site map.

CBC's It's a Canada Thing summer tour will be there!

Everyone in Canada has a specific idea of what living in this country means to them. Whether it's unique to their family traditions, honouring multiple cultural backgrounds or simply embracing the niche customs of their community. Whatever that specific Canada thing is, it connects us and makes us, well, us. So let's celebrate it.

This summer we're asking people across the country to share their Canada thing with pride. Visit CBC's colourful pop-up kiosk to share what living in this country means to you and test your knowledge of Canadian culture for a chance to win fun CBC swag.
