Where cultural visions and energies come alive.
Strathcona County is located on Treaty Six Territory and the homeland of the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region Two and Four. Strathcona County honours the First Peoples of this land. We recognize that we stand upon land that carries the footsteps of Cree, Métis, and Blackfoot amongst many other Nations, who have been here for thousands of years. Therefore, Strathcona County has an inherent responsibility to foster healthier relationships with First Peoples and further the Calls to Action as outlined by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
Since 1994, Festival Place has welcomed Strathcona County residents into a space that has become a staple in the arts and culture community. Inviting in and hosting hundreds of local, regional, national, and international acts with an average of 500 events a year! Festival Place is a vibrant multi-use centre for the arts, community and business and is home to a number of community and regional arts organizations, including our own Festival Players, as well as offering a wide variety of performing arts programs each year for all ages to enjoy.

Riding the Waves Festival Place Documentary
Spring 2021, Festival Place produced a documentary featuring 11 local artists from a variety of genres. At its core, our film reminds audiences, supporters, and sponsors, why Festival Place is a relevant and engaged member of the performance art community. Each artist will discuss what the local music scene meant to them, and how they managed to weather the pandemic storm.
