Accommodations

Make the most of your experience during the Fall Expo weekend by camping with us! There is tons of camping available on-site and your camping is included with the Weekend Pass. 

Enjoy beautiful scenery, nights under the sparkle of unpolluted starlight, the calming crackle of a campfire, and the familiar comfort of your favourite camping chair. 

Answer the call. Let your inner child come out to play. We’ve got a camping weekend that you don’t want to miss. 

There are accommodations available in Edson or Hinton if you prefer to stay off-site, but we do not have any preferred providers and can not guarantee availability. 

Choose to camp in a world class venue on the open prairie, by a peaceful lakefront, or in a serene forest. Bring in what you can on your back or in your trailer. No matter how you camp, we’ve got the spots for you. 

Answer the call.

Animals

Pets are welcome to join you at the AOA Expo! As pet owners ourselves we know adventuring is so much better with our furry friends along for the journey! We do ask however that animals remain on leash when you are away from your primary camping area or outside of the off leash dog run area (located within the stadium). There are farm animals on neighboring property, so safety is our top priority.

Please note you may see signs around the ground that state "No Dogs Allowed" however these relate to the landowners and rodeo specific events, they are not applicable to the Expo. Please know your animals are welcome with you anywhere on the grounds!
