The Freewill Shakespeare Festival is all about celebrating why the Bard’s works are still relevant today. Whether you’re a Shakespeare nut or a Shakespeare newbie, when you come to the Festival, take a quick glance at the synopses provided and you’ll be set to enjoy an amazing performance. General seating is available under the canopy but you can also bring a blanket and watch performances from the grass. Hint: it’s a really romantic date night.

In addition to seeing a great performance, you can enjoy a picnic (bring your own or pick one up at the Festival), a drink at the Freewill Wine & Beer Patio, and a stroll through one of Edmonton’s loveliest parks.
