Fort Saskatchewan families can welcome summer with a free festival at Legacy Park on Saturday, June 6, 2026. The Legacy Park Family Festival runs from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm and marks the return of the city’s famous turf-trimming sheep to their summer grazing grounds at Peter T. Ream Historic Park.
This is the city’s signature summer kick-off event, presented by Keyera. Attendees can enjoy live music, food trucks, inflatables, a petting zoo, face painting, and more than 24 community booths.
“Events like the Legacy Park Family Festival bring people together and showcase what makes Fort Saskatchewan such a welcoming and connected community,” said Mayor Lisa Makin. “From the return of the sheep to the incredible local talent and activities for all ages, this festival is a true reflection of our community spirit.”
Headlining the entertainment is Beppie (Stephanie Nhan), a two-time JUNO-nominated children’s musician from Edmonton. YouthFest is also a partner, giving young people a chance to show their creativity through art displays and activities.
One of the community groups with a booth is the Families First Society, a charitable organization led by Executive Director Darryl Burry since June 2024 that serves over 900 families in Fort Saskatchewan and the Sturgeon Region. Since 1998, it has offered early childhood development, parenting programs, domestic violence prevention, and other family support services.
Residents should note that a different date for the festival appears on the Families First Society website, but the correct city-organized event is June 6 at Legacy Park, located at 100 Avenue and 101 Street.
