With the weather warming up, it’s finally carnival season in Edmonton.
If you’re familiar with the travelling fairs all about Alberta, you’ll know they pop up only once or twice a year. This means it’s of the utmost importance that you know which ones are coming and when. That’s exactly why we’re here, and why we’ve rounded up the best upcoming carnivals and fairs coming to the Edmonton area.
Let’s get into all the fair fun possible, folks.
Wild Rose Shows will be showing off all their carnival rides next weekend at the Millwoods Town Centre. This will be one of the earliest fairs of the year, so if you’re looking for excitement early, this is your best bet!

The next Wild Rose show will be at Londonderry Mall the following weekend. Here, you can hop aboard one of the many rides they have, compete in carnival games, and even get a snack that never tastes better than at the fair.

Rainmaker Rodeo is our personal favourite of the local fairs, but maybe that’s because it’s run by the St. Albert Kinsmen — and we just like supporting local.
Yup, you heard us right the first time, it’s a rodeo. Complete with huge rides, great eats, and shows being put on basically the whole time, you won’t ever get bored at the Rainmaker.
