Me and my 3 kids are coming to Edmonton this weekend and was hoping you maybe had a place where I could get 2 foot 1 tickets to the water park
Hello, Sorry but I don’t believe that discount exists. You can purchase slightly discounted admission to the Waterpark at the Edmonton Garrison, or look for tickets to a private event for the day you are wanting to go to see if there is one being hosted while you are in town that has a lower cost admission. Note that those tickets will have specific times for entry though! Best of luck and have fun!
