Central Alberta’s International Street Performer Festival will be happening all weekend long from July 29th to 30th. This year, is Centrefest’s 20th Anniversary and the streets of Red Deer will be filled with street performers, street markets, food trucks, and more.  

This year, event will be taking place Downtown Red Deer at Ross Street and Little Gaetz Avenue. The festival’s location will also mean local streets will be closed for the event.  

There is no admission to Centrefest but bringing along cash is encouraged. Street performers make income by busking. When you enjoy a performance you are encouraged to let them know with loonies, toonies, and cash. If you forget cash, there will be a ‘Change Exchange’ on site.
