On October 2, head to Grande Prairie for Oktoberfest of Ale, an evening of local brews, new favourites and a great excuse for a fall getaway.
Skip the round trip. That’s not a getaway—it’s a commute with lederhosen.
Stay at the Sandman Hotel and save 40% on your room rate. Sleep in, grab brunch and spend Saturday exploring Northwestern Alberta. Take your time—you’ve earned more than a one-night stand with Grande Prairie. 😉

The Swan City Half Marathon returns to Grande Prairie on September 27, with 21K, 10K, 5K and 1K distances for runners of all ages and abilities.
Coming from out of town? Pick up your race package Saturday, book your stay at the Sandman Hotel for 40% off and wake up ready to run, because your warm-up shouldn’t involve an early-morning highway drive.
After the finish line, grab brunch, explore the trails and enjoy fall in Northwestern Alberta. Your legs may vote for the brunch-first option.
To book your stay at the Sandman Hotel and to register for the marathon, see link in bio.

“Let’s go camping” isn’t something you hear very often in the fall, but here are a few reasons why you should:
🍂 Fewer crowds

🌌 Dark skies & stargazing (hello Northern Lights!)
🌲 Gorgeous fall scenery
☕ Crisp mornings and coffee in hand + cozy nights
🐛 Fewer bugs (hallelujah)
So grab your tent or RV, some food to BBQ because camping season in the Grande Prairie region is open until October 15!
