Remembrance Day Events & Services
Attending a Remembrance Day service is a great way to show respect for those who served. It's a chance to come together with others, take a moment of silence, and reflect on the sacrifices made by soldiers and their families. Here are a couple of events to attend on Nov. 11th: the 93rd annual Saskatoon Remembrance Day Service at SaskTel Centre will begin at 9:30 AM, with doors opening at 9:00 AM.
The other event, is the Remembrance at the University of Saskatchewan. This is their 96th annual event and will be happening at 1:30 pm at Memorial Gates, located near the College Drive entrance by the Royal University Hospital. Both events are open for anyone to attend.
Music Events this Month!
Saskatoon's music scene is growing and thriving more and more, which I personally love! This month, a great variety of shows and concerts are coming to Saskatoon that are worth checking out! On Nov. 13th, Sarah McLachlan is performing at SaskTel Centre; this show is part of her 30th Anniversary Tour. How is it that she has been performing for 30 years?
Then, on Nov. 16th, the Saskatoon Symphony Orchestra is performing at TCU Place- An Evening of Pink Floyd. This sounds super cool, especially because they will be playing classics from The Wall and The Dark Side of the Moon!
A few more worth mentioning are happening at the Coors Event Centre: Tenille Townes is having a show on Nov. 14th, and Owen Riegling has one on the 25th; this is perfect for those who love music! Check out our events page here to see other musical performances or get tickets.

Holiday Classic Events are Back!
It's hard to believe we are talking about the Holidays, but they are just around the corner! Towards the end of the month, some of the best holiday events are back for another year. A staple tradition in our house is the annual Santa Parade! This classic event is happening downtown Saskatoon, on Nov. 17th, with the Parade starting at 1:00 pm!
Also, starting that weekend, the BHP Enchanted Forest is back for its 26th year! This year, they have added TWO nights of the Light Walk—on Nov. 16th and 17th—and after that, it will be for vehicles. I can't wait to see if they have any new displays this year! This all happens throughout the Saskatoon Forestry Farm Park & Zoo and it runs until Jan.5th.
Lastly, the Festival of Trees is happening from Nov. 22nd to Nov. 30th at the WDM. This classic event, which displays over 20 decorated Christmas trees, incredible gingerbread houses, and holiday music performances, is perfect for getting into the holiday spirit!
These are just some of the events happening, there are so many other wonderful holiday events you can check out that are all on our events page, take a look!
