William Hawrelak Park is officially OPEN again!
Edmonton’s beloved green space is ready to welcome you back—now better than ever. Whether you’re walking, biking, snowshoeing, or planning a cozy winter picnic, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
What’s new?

Behind the scenes, this major rehabilitation renewed essential infrastructure—some dating back to 1967—helping ensure the park can serve the community for generations to come.
From upgraded electrical systems and expanded LED lighting to improved facilities for festivals, events, and everyday use, every detail was designed with the future in mind.
A big part of this transformation included collaboration with EPCOR Utilities and Cdn. Power Pac to deliver reliable, future-ready infrastructure across the park.
Come explore, reconnect, and rediscover one of Edmonton’s most iconic spaces.
