nothing defines spring quite like flowers do
April showers and beautiful flowers–if that sounds like springtime to you, then there’s a lot you can do this April! For example, the Orchid Fair at the Enjoy Centre from April 7-9 will be delightful, we’re sure, with plants you can spruce up your home with like the rarest orchids you can find. And there’s always the Muttart Conservatory with new exotic plants every year and the Concerts at the Conservatory for you and the loved one to enjoy local artists along with the gorgeous greenery. And during the intermission, you can take the guided tour with your own Muttart Conservatory Interpreter!
Edmonton International Beerfest
Self explanatory? Mostly. What you might not expect is the event takes place in over 80,000 square feet of space. This is because there are more than 500 beers for tasting, an awesome lineup of entertainment, Edmonton’s most popular beer-serving establishments, and a lot of attendees. Come to The Shaw Conference Centre to check this event out or read more about it here.
