## Resource

After three years of renovation, William Hawrelak Park is back open—and with over $134 million invested, it’s bursting with new upgrades: a refreshed lakefront, modern playground, updated pavilion, and newly accessible Heritage Amphitheatre. This means beloved local events like the Freewill Shakespeare Festival, Edmonton Heritage Festival, and Silver Skate Festival are all returning home—after years of scrambling for alternative venues. The park’s improved infrastructure not only makes these festivals possible again, but also signals a vibrant comeback for one of Edmonton’s most cherished green spaces.
