September Events in Saskatoon 2018

September in Saskatoon 2018

September has to be one of the most beautiful times of the year in the Saskatoon region. Once the leaves start to change colour, you’ll see a cascade of golds along the Meewasin Valley (around the second last week of the month). On top of the fall sightseeing you can do for free outdoors, the city has its standby outdoor markets – like the Broadway and 33rd Street Fairs – along with fall suppers, fireworks, and other unique art & culture activities.

This month, find Do Sask at both the Broadway Street Fair and at the Saskatchewan Entertainment Expo (the latter involves a geek-only speed dating event). Look for details to all of these events in the massive monthly listing below. Check the Do Sask Facebook group for daily updates.
