Saskatoon has four distinct seasons, each of which has something to offer—whether you enjoy warm weather pursuits such as hiking or swimming, prefer cooler weather when the leaves change colour, or want to have fun playing in the snow.
Attractions ranging from museums and galleries to theatres, restaurants and parks are available year round. Many special events and festivals are also celebrated every year. Folkfest, Saskatchewan Jazz Festival and the Saskatoon Exhibition are only a few of the events celebrated annually in Saskatoon.
For a complete listing of attractions or a complete list of events and festivals, visit Tourism Saskatoon.
