When you choose to book a flight to Edmonton depends on what type of vacation you’re looking for.
Travel to the city during summer, from June to August, for long sunny days and low humidity, which make for the perfect conditions to explore the city. This period is the height of the festival season, when travellers can really see the city at its vibrant best. Why not visit in June for Edmonton Gay Pride, July for Taste of Edmonton or August for The Edmonton Heritage Festival? As with most Canadian cities, summer is considered to be the peak season, therefore, tourists should expect to pay higher rates for accommodation and flights to Edmonton.
Spring (May) and autumn (September) are great times to visit for nature lovers, either to see the greenery unfold or the changing fall foliage. This can be the ideal time to visit for travellers looking for a great travel deal, as you are more likely to find cheap flights to Edmonton compared to summer’s higher airfares.
Winter runs from October through March. These months experience extreme conditions, with heavy snowfall and temperatures on occasion dropping to around -15°C.

Although many tourists are put off by the cold weather, this is the perfect time to book flights to Edmonton if you’re a snow sports enthusiast.

Edmonton overview
Edmonton started off in 1795 as a fur trading fort established by the Hudson’s Bay Company. It’s kind of fitting therefore that the city is now home to North America’s largest shopping centre, the West Edmonton Mall.
There’s much more to this Alberta city than shopping however. It’s a booming staging point for oil sands projects in northern Alberta and diamond mining operations in the Northwest Territories. On top of that it is a noted city of the arts. There are more live theatres per capita than anywhere else in Canada, theatre festivals dot the summer calendar, and the performing arts community spans opera, ballet, symphony orchestra and jazz.
It has been Canada’s Cultural Capital and its legendary hockey team, the Oilers, has collected numerous Stanley Cups.
Edmonton’s greenness is legendary too. A green belt runs through the city and there are hundreds of kilometres of trails for walking, running, cycling and rollerblading. In the winter months, chances to skate, go cross-country skiing or downhill skiing, are all just minutes from the city centre.
Edmonton climate
Edmonton has a temperate climate. November to mid-March is snowy; temperatures average -15 degrees Celsius. June through August is dry and sunny with average temperatures of 17 degrees. The summer solstice (June 21) is a long, bright day – more than 17 hours.
