About Fort McMurray

Fort McMurray, Alberta is a multi-cultural community attracting people from all corners of Canada and the world. It is the largest community in the regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo, Alberta, and a growing metropolitan region located 435 km northeast of Edmonton, Alberta. Real estate is in demand in Fort McMurray due to the rapid growth of the petroleum industry and oil sands exploration, which is bringing economic benefits to the area.

There are events in Fort McMurray through out the year with something for everyone. Canada Day brings fireworks, the Big Spirit Parade and a street fair with local artists, actors, musicians and craftspeople. August brings interPLAY, a festival of visual and performing entertainment that shuts down an entire block of city streets so all can enjoy an array of musicians, singers, buskers and entertainers. Plays are also presented in area venues. The Blueberry Festival is celebrated with parades, raft races, fireworks, a midway, Battle of the Bands and pie eating contests. In season, view the Northern Lights in the night sky.

Fort McMurray’s climate represents the meeting of polar and more tropical air. Long cold winters and warm short summers are the norm. Winter temperature average -19°C with a low of -50°C and summer temperatures average 17°C with the extreme maximum being 37°C.

The surrounding Alberta country side is a recreational wonderland with its beautiful clear waters and expansive boreal forests. Winter’s snow covered hills provide snowmobiling, back-country skiing and snow shoeing. Rushing rivers provide a place to canoe, kayak and fly fish. Go off-roading through the northern lake sand dunes, camping, or discover the largest bison herd in northern Canada at Wood Buffalo National Park of Canada.
