What Should Your Edmonton Story Be About?

Share your story about what makes Edmonton special to you. Your story can be about anything — the moment you first saw the fireworks on Canada day, the great adventures you have with your friends, the kindness of a stranger, or just a moment in time that said to you "this is Edmonton." It's easy, just tell it to us like you'd tell it to your friends.

For more tips on sharing your story as well as technical requirements, see Story Submission Process.
