In the heart of Edmonton’s downtown, Sir Winston Churchill Square and City Hall Plaza are home to many world-class festivals and community events.
Come skate on the ice rink in winter, splash in the fountain in summer, check out the art and rotating exhibits, or listen in on a public meeting inside City Hall. The area can be enjoyed year-round.
We’re proud to announce that 2 mosaic sculptures, by local artists Red Knot Studio, have received the Creative City Network’s Legacy Award for their imaginative and child-friendly designs.
