With the hot temperatures, a Canada Day Celebration, and the lifting of COVID-19 restrictions across the province, Sylvan Lake will be one of the busiest places in Alberta.

If you want to find a parking spot, and a place to lay your towel on the beach you are better off to get here early. The temperature is forecast to hit 35 today, making it one of the hottest days of the year so far. You can check out the full forecast here.

As of 8:30 this morning signs were already advising visitors of full parking lots and a packed beach front.

Parking is at a premium, and you must park in designated areas only. Remember paid parking is also in effect.

The Sylvan Lake Pier will be packed today.
