From February 15 until March 3, 2019, Red Deer and central Alberta will host the 2019 Canada
Winter Games. Featuring 19 sports, over 150 events and a major cultural festival, the 2019
Canada Winter Games will welcome up to 3,600 athletes, managers and coaches and more

central Alberta and one of the largest events to be hosted in Alberta in over three decades,
since the 1988 Calgary Olympics.

The Canada Games is the nation's largest multi-sport competition for young athletes. Held
every two years, alternating between summer and winter, the Canada Games is a key event
in the development of Canada’s young athletes and represents the pinnacle of
interprovincial/territorial sport competition.

The 2019 Games will provide a stage for Canada’s next generation of national, international
and Olympic champions to compete. Over 20,000 visitors will travel to Red Deer to
experience the Games and over five million viewers will tune in on TSN and RDS to watch the
next generation of great athletes.

The 2019 Games will leave a lasting legacy of new and enhanced sport facilities and
volunteer and leadership development that will benefit athletes and the broader central
Alberta community for years to come.
