Prairie Winds Park
About the park
The park opened on September 8, 1990, with a gazebo in the Grant MacEwan grove, where 90 trees were planted for his 90th birthday. It then underwent an 11.9 million-dollar renovation from 2014 to 2017.
Due to its proximity to the Calgary Airport, Prairie Winds Park does not permit the use of drones, kites, model planes, balloons, or other airborne devices.
