Redcliff will host its second annual Fall Festival and Chilli Cook-Off on Saturday, September 26, 2026, bringing a full afternoon of free family fun and a tasty competition to Lions Park. The event runs from noon until 4 p.m., with the chilli cook-off raising money for the local youth centre.

Organized by the Town of Redcliff and Redcliff FCSS, the festival offers free activities like pumpkin carving and a penny carnival. A magic show is scheduled for 2 p.m., and the Something For Everyone Market will sell seasonal refreshments such as hot apple cider, hot dogs, and mini donuts.

The chilli cook-off, now in its second year, invites residents to sample homemade chillies and vote for their favourite. Tasting and voting costs $5, with all proceeds going to the Redcliff Youth Centre. The centre needs roughly $200,000 a year to keep its free youth programs running, so community fundraisers like this one are vital.

Lions Park, a 3.77-acre green space developed by the Redcliff Lions Club, offers mature trees, a splash park, playground, and kitchen facilities—an ideal setting for the gathering. Details and the full event calendar can be found on the Town of Redcliff website.

Residents of all ages are encouraged to come out, connect with neighbours, and support local youth services.
