Alberta Day
The City of Fort Saskatchewan will be hosting its first ever Alberta Day celebration on Saturday, September 3.
The Government of Alberta recently announced the establishment of a new annual tradition in celebration of the day the Alberta Act came into effect. The Alberta Act formally established the Province of Alberta on September 1, 1905. September 1 will be recognized in perpetuity as Alberta Day. The day will give Albertans an opportunity every year to come together in a spirit of celebration and express their pride in our province’s unique spirit, culture and heritage that connects us as Albertans.
