The marvelous CP Holiday Train rolls into Edmonton tonight

The CP Holiday Train is on its journey through Alberta, bringing lights, music, and holiday cheer with it, and Edmonton is getting in on the fun tonight.

Every year, the Holiday Train travels through dozens of communities, raising food and cash donations for North American food banks. There are only two Holiday Trains: the US Holiday Train and the Canada Holiday Train.

The tour features many free live shows, and this year’s lineup includes several stand-out artists, including American Authors, Magic!, Sofia Camara, and Tyler Shaw.

The train will motor through nearly two dozen communities in Alberta, including Edmonton, Calgary, Canmore, Airdrie, and Leduc.
