Edmonton 2 Spirit Society 1st Annual Traditional 2 Spirit Pow Wow
Borden Park 7507 Borden Park Rd NW, Edmonton, AB, Edmonton, Alberta, CanadaThe Edmonton 2 Spirit Society is honored to host our 1st Annual Traditional 2 Spirit Pow Wow — a powerful celebration of Two Spirit identity, culture, and community. This landmark event will take place over three meaningful days, each rooted in tradition, connection, and pride.
We begin on June 27 with Tipi Teachings, where a traditional tipi will be set up as a sacred space for sharing Indigenous knowledge, stories, and teachings that honor the spirit and role of Two Spirit people in our cultures.
On June 28, join us at Borden Park (7507 Borden Park Rd NW, Edmonton, AB T5B 4W8) for a full day of celebration — both the Tipi Teachings and our Traditional Pow Wow will be held on-site. Grand Entry begins at 12:00 PM, followed by an afternoon filled with dancing, drumming, singing, and ceremony, wrapping up at 6:30 PM.
We close the weekend on June 29 with a warm and welcoming community brunch from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM, featuring performances by incredibly talented 2 Spirit artists and community members. During the brunch, we will also host a silent auction to raise funds for our Blue Jean Jacket Initiative, a campaign dedicated to honoring and raising awareness for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Men and Boys in our communities.
This Pow Wow is not just an event — it is a reclamation, a gathering of spirits, and a celebration of who we are. All are welcome to join us in making history and creating space for Two Spirit voices to be seen, heard, and honoured.
