The International Food Court features mouth-watering menu items from around the world. These delicacies are brought to you by the following members of the Red Deer Cultural Heritage Society:

The afternoon lineup of dancers, singers and numerous various talents (hula hooping, playing of a traditional Chinese instrument known as a guzheng, belly dancers, and more!) from local cultural groups will be a beautiful manifestation of Canadian multiculturalism and pride. The Red Deer Native Friendship Society will have their teepee set up by the Cronquist House for storytelling, BOUNCY CASTLES will be set up by the stage (parents - enjoy the shows on the stage and watch your kids at the same time! Talk about a win-win!), as well as a wide variety of Arts & Crafts Vendors set up around the Cronquist House (including: Eliza Jane Soap Co., Sally Towers - Sybblis, AND MORE)!

The evening concerts will feature Pascal Lecours et les Mauvais Caractères, The Vintage, Bill Bourne with Ganges Delta & Nick Gilder Sweeney Todd Group. As usual, the evening will be completed by a glorious, booming fireworks display. This is but a brief summary of all the fun to be had at Red Deer's one and only Canada Day Celebration brought to you annually by the Red Deer Cultural Heritage Society.
