1875 North West Mounted Police Fort open for free on Canada Day

Posted on June 28, 2018

FREE Culture and Recreation Admission For Wildfire Evacuees: In response to the ongoing wildfires, the City of Fort Saskatchewan is offering complimentary admission to The Fort Heritage Precinct, Dow Centennial Centre, and Harbour Pool to all BC & NWT evacuees. Simply present your ID at reception!

As part of Fort Saskatchewan’s Canada Day celebrations, the 1875 North West Mounted Police Fort at the Fort Heritage Precinct will be open, free of charge, from 1pm – 6pm on July 1, 2018! The Warden’s Residence gift shop will be open as well, and costumed interpreters and volunteers will be stationed throughout the Fort to interact with visitors. We are especially excited to welcome Running Thunder, a group of Indigenous dancers, who will be performing in the NWMP Fort at 1:15pm.
