Canada’s border city, located on the Alberta/Saskatchewan provincial border is the most unique stop along the Yellowhead highway. Located partly in both provinces, the city enjoys benefits of both provinces — strong economies and great services and amenities.
The city does have some peculiarities, such as following the mountain standard time as does the balance of Alberta or holding a PST exemption from Saskatchewan’s PST act, therefore, the whole city is PST-free.
Come check out the world’s tallest border markets along 50 Avenue, at the junction of the Yellowhead highway. Lloydminster also boasts a number of attractions and activities to keep you and your family busy. The Barr Colony Heritage Cultural Centre features an oilfield science centre, wildlife exhibit, heritage museum, art gallery and traveling exhibits. Bud Miller All Seasons Park offers 200+ acres of urban green space that is a perfect setting for a relaxing stroll with your family, a picnic or wiener roast, as well as a dip in the Leisure Centre — home of the city’s waterslide and wave pool. With numerous ball fields, such as the Legion Ball Park at 40th Avenue and the Yellowhead hwy or the state of the art Common Wealth Centre Multiplex, sporting events are regular events around town. Other facilities include the Lloydminster Exhibition Grounds, site of hundreds of annual events, The Border City Petting Zoo, as well as many other local businesses in the city.
