Winter will settle over the city in a few short weeks!
Here are 3 reasons to love Edmonton in winter:
❄️ Our fabulous festivals

Winter is coming! Some might consider that a warning, but we say it as a joyful declaration! For us, and hopefully for you, winter is a season to embrace like any other, for the unique opportunities it offers. What are you excited for this winter?

Hello, everyone! This is our first foray into Bluesky, and we’re happy to cross paths with you!
All winter long, we’ll be sharing ways to make the most of the season, and showing that winter is one of our city’s unsung strengths. We hope you’ll follow along!

It’s #ThirdWinter here in my #WinterCity, with a foot of snow falling in the last 24 hours, but we know that spring is just around the corner. This little flower garden is a helpful reminder…

Edmonton is Festival City - even in the snow ❄️
The @yegcanoevolant brings together French Canadian, Métis, and First Nations culture through art, music, and glowing installations.

Winter riding is fun. Check out @bikeedmonton.bsky.social for new or used gears. Did I mention studded tires will make a difference in your rides. Be safe and have fun out there.

Fortunate enough to be added in bikeedmonton.ca/news/studded.... If not for studded tires, this would be impassable. Thanks to #yeg & @bikeedmonton.bsky.social. Hope this program comes back next year for more cyclists. A few tips in next comments.

Unlike last year, no broken ribs yet with these studded tires from @bikeedmonton.bsky.social. Total game changer. Slicing thru brown sugar and solid traction.
Commuting back from work.

A selfie of a white smiling woman wearing glasses, a green bike helmet and a maroon jacket. She's next to a dark grey bike locked up in a bike rack. A light aluminum coloured wall with tan concrete blocks near the bottom is behind her.
Walked to hair salon this morning. Left my glasses there. Biked back to Westmount Centre to pick them up on this slushy snowy afternoon. Something I wouldn't have done last winter because I didn't have winter tires. Thanks #WinterCityYEG and @bikeedmonton.bsky.social
Photo of a bright green bike helmet and grey and black striped toque in circle formed by studded bike tires on tile floor. There's a bike on a stand in rear but you can only see front and rear tires and pedals.
Picked up my free studded tires. And found a new crash bucket to buy. Thanks @bikeedmonton.bsky.social and City of Edmonton. Looking forward to riding to downtown shops and events, to start. Have thin toque that fits under helmet. #WinterCityYEG #WinterCycling
That was a good week, I hope you enjoyed the podcast! Thanks to @thewaroncars.bsky.social for highlighting all the good work going on in #WinterCityYeg. Here's a shameless plug for our #yegbike #TreeByBike trip yesterday. bsky.app/profile/isla...

3 vintage rigid mountain bikes, each well equipped for winter rider, are lined up on and in front of benches in a postcard worthy winter scene in a city park
Want to try winter cycling but are concerned about slipping? We have partnered witht WinterCity Edmonton to give away free studded tires! To learn more about the program, and to apply, visit bikeedmonton.ca/news/studded...
