Welcome to the 2026 Heritage Festival of Saskatoon, celebrating Saskatoon and area’s civic, natural, cultural, and artistic heritage, and featuring events on Feb 8th and 11th.
The 2026 festival theme, “Streets of Saskatoon”, invites everyone to discover the city’s heritage through its roads, intersections, and public spaces. It celebrates the people, events, and innovations that have passed through these streets and encourages us to reflect on the ways our roads link us together, bridging generations.
For 38 years, the Heritage Festival of Saskatoon has delighted, informed, and entertained visitors.
“A fun way to learn more about our past and what shapes our city today.”
