Events Roundup
March 19, 2026
This week, we're highlighting an event pick by Taproot community coordinator, Debbi Serafinchon. Debbi recommends Canada's Food Island Culinary Showcase a chance to experience a taste of Prince Edward Island.
Canada's Food Island Culinary Showcase
📅 Saturday, March 28 6:30 PM
📍 Sabor Restaurant
ONE NIGHT ONLY: Experience a taste of Prince Edward Island in the heart of downtown Edmonton!
Here's what Debbi had to say:
"There's a PEI kitchen party happening in downtown Edmonton for one night only. There will be fresh seafood and farm produce flown in, and local chefs will be putting a prairie twist on 11 different food stations. There will also be authentic PEI entertainment, so it will basically be the best of the Island right here in the city."
