Best Places to Spend Canada Day 2023
July 1st is fast approaching, which means it’s almost time to say “O Canada!” and celebrate Canada Day! Canada Day falls on a weekend this year, so you have plenty of time to explore all of the exciting events Edmonton has to offer. Here at the Southpark, we’re getting ready for the big day by rounding up all of the best places near us to spend the holiday; whether you’re in the mood to enjoy live music or watch a fabulous firework display, we have you covered.
Kick Off Canada Day Edmonton 2023 with the Annual Block Party on Whyte Avenue
Are you ready for a weekend full of partying, music, and sunshine? Look no further than Blues on Whyte’s annual Canada Day Block Party. Only a 6-minute walk away from Southpark on Whyte, Blues on Whyte will have an iconic lineup of artists performing live on the patio all weekend. With everything from rock to blues to up-and-coming contemporary artists from the local community, we guarantee that you won’t forget this jamboree anytime soon.
Celebrate With Friends and Family at Southpark on Whyte
Staying home for statutory holidays is just as much fun as going out. Inviting your loved ones over to celebrate Canada Day at home is a great way to take advantage of all of the amenities we offer. Feel free to use our indoor lounge or the demonstration kitchen and dining area for entertaining a large group. Or, even better: host a Canada Day BBQ on our outdoor patio. Since Canada Day falls on a Saturday, the party doesn’t need to end when the night is over either; we offer fully furnished guest suites so you can celebrate together all weekend.
See the Canada Day Fireworks in Edmonton
You’re not alone if the first thing you think of when you picture Canada Day festivities is fireworks. Here at Southpark on Whyte, we are near some prime locations to see this year’s stunning fireworks displays.

Victoria Park
Not only is Victoria Park a prime location for watching the fireworks in Edmonton, but the park itself has several amenities for you and your loved ones to access all day, including a baseball diamond, picnic sites, and a playground for the little ones.
