Fort Edmonton Park is a historical park in Edmonton's River Valley, easily accessible from Whitemud Drive, one of the major arterial routes. Each team will receive a ticket/day for each handler and boxloader permitting access to the park (and the tournament site). Please state on your entry if you require additional tickets.

Inside the park a variety of food outlets are open, and we will also make food and beverages available for purchase by exhibitors. This weekend is dedicated by Fort Edmonton Park as 'Gone to the Dogs'.
