Canada 150 events in the Queen City

It’s a big birthday for Canada on Saturday – and Regina is celebrating appropriately.

There’s a long list of activities happening in the Queen City.

Wascana Park will be the place to be from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. from a free pancake breakfast starting the day to the fireworks that cap it off at 11 p.m.

Events will also be taking place at Government House from 1 to 4 p.m. and City Square Plaza from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. There’s also a free Coors Light Party in the Park at Confederation Park at Evraz Place from 4 p.m. to when the Rider game starts at 7 p.m.

People at the Government House for afternoon celebrations will be treated to a special flyover. The Snowbird Canada 150 jet – which features designs, like Canada 150 logos on the nose and wings and 150 red maple leaves on the underside – will fly past Government House around 2:45 p.m.

If you’re looking to get out of the city to celebrate Canada Day, entrance is free at Saskatchewan’s provincial parks. Each park has its own list of activities, many including fireworks.
