One delicious afternoon celebrating the best of local food, art and music: Savour Strathcona County returns Sunday, Sept. 13

Get ready to taste, sip, shop and celebrate local. Savour Strathcona County returns on Sunday, Sept. 13, 2026, transforming the Strathcona County Community Centre and Festival Lane into a vibrant showcase of the region's culinary talent, artistic creativity and live entertainment. The annual festival runs from 3 to 7 p.m. and promises an unforgettable experience for food lovers, families, music fans and anyone looking to discover the best of what Strathcona County has to offer.

Savour is a celebration of community. Visitors can sample mouthwatering dishes from local restaurants and food trucks, browse unique creations from area artists and makers, explore a lively open-air farmers' market and enjoy an afternoon of live local music. 

"There's something special about bringing together the people, businesses and creative talent that make Strathcona County such a vibrant place to live and visit," said Alana Seymour, Economic Development Officer, Business Retention and Expansion, for Strathcona County. "Savour gives residents and visitors the opportunity to experience dozens of local businesses in one location while supporting the entrepreneurs, artists and performers who help our community thrive."

This year's event features an impressive lineup of local restaurants, food trucks, breweries and wineries, including crowd favourites such as Yoshi Japanese Restaurant, Mexico Lindo Tacos & Grill, New Asian Village, Manual Labour Beer Co., Barr Estate Winery as well as some new ones like La Fabbrica del Gusto, Ivy Tearoom & Bakery, Zayn’s Diner Plus, and many more. Food samples range in price from $2-$5, while cash is preferred; vendors will accept debit and credit cards.

While food may be the star of the show, Savour offers far more than great tastes. The artisan market, curated in partnership with Gallery@501, will showcase talented local artists and makers, offering visitors the opportunity to discover one-of-a-kind works and handmade creations.

Music lovers can settle in at the Luke Jansen Soundstage, where an exciting lineup of local performers will provide the soundtrack for the afternoon, creating the perfect festival atmosphere.

Festival-goers can also stroll through the open-air farmers' market on Festival Lane, presented in partnership with the Sherwood Park Farmers' Market, while shopping 

Whether you're discovering a new favourite restaurant, sampling locally crafted beverages, purchasing original art, or simply spending quality time with friends and family, Savour offers an authentic taste of Strathcona County.
