K-Days, Then and Now
Let’s take a journey back in time to the birth of a legendary summer tradition. It all began in 1879 when the first seeds of what would later become K-Days were sown with the inception of the Edmonton Exhibition. Held by the Edmonton Agricultural Society at the first Fort Edmonton site, this inaugural fair showcased the best of what the region had to offer – from locally produced livestock, grain, and vegetables to exquisite handiwork. It was a time for the community to come together, share knowledge, and celebrate the abundance of their land.
Fast forward to the present day, and K-Days has blossomed into a monumental event, attracting over 760,000 visitors each year.
