NEW FOR 2021
1) Taste of Edmonton returns to Churchill Square in the Arts District, after being in Capital Plaza due to downtown construction. The new site plan allows for ample physical distancing.
2) Stay tuned for updates on their entertainment lineup. The free concert series has been a popular draw for years, and organizers are working with City of Edmonton and health officials to plan a safe way to feature performances this year.
3) Implemented health and safety measures will include reduced capacity, hand sanitizing stations, plexiglass at ticket booths, designated seating areas, queuing adjustments, and cashless ticket booths.
4) About 85% of the participating restaurants will include a new third menu item with a max value of two tickets.
(Note: the printed version of the Info Edmonton Seasonal Guide—Summer 2021 incorrectly specifies the value as only one ticket. This has been corrected in the digital edition.)
