Last Edmonton festival wraps up ahead of 3-year Hawrelak Park closure
is one of many Edmonton festivals and events that have had to look for a new home. It will be relocating just across the river to Sir Wilfrid Laurier Park.
“We’re so excited to showcase another jewel of the river valley,” said Silver Skate executive producer Erin DiLoreto, “a beautiful park that doesn’t really get a lot of event love.“So we get to test the waters and see what that looks like. It’s an opportunity to step out of the comfort of Hawrelak and try things different.”After 17 years at Hawrelak, DiLoreto will miss the original location but is looking forward to the much-needed changes.
“I hope that the work that needs to get done to Hawrelak Park gets done in a thoughtful and smart manner.”“Our stance has always been that there is work that needs to be done to Hawrelak,” she said. “There’s some necessary infrastructure work that needs to be done… There’s no Wi-Fi here. I can’t even bring a banking machine in.”Story continues below advertisement
DiLoreto hasn’t seen the final designs for the park but says her top priorities would be safety, the ring road, transportation plan, signage, power, internet, upgrades to the amphitheatre and 1954 kitchen facilities.Read more:
