Restrictions Exemption Program at Westerner Park

In response to the Alberta government declaring a state of public health emergency, Westerner Park has implemented the Restrictions Exemption Program, which requires one of the following for all people aged 12 and older:

• Proof of COVID-19 double-vaccination (completed at least 14 days from an event's start date)
• Negative COVID-19 PCR or rapid test, from a privately-paid testing provider, completed within 72 hours of an event’s start time
• Formal documentation of a medical exemption as defined on the Alberta government's COVID-19 public health actions | Alberta.ca site.

Note, all ticket holders must be fully vaccinated to attend any IIHF World Junior Championship games, per Hockey Canada's COVID-19 vaccination policy.

Masks will also be required in compliance with Alberta Health Services guidelines. Anyone unable to wear a mask due to an approved medical condition will be asked to provide their medical exception letter (visit Alberta mask requirements for details).

Alberta vaccine record with QR codes (paper or digital) is now the only valid Alberta-issued proof of vaccination accepted as of November 15, 2021. You can download your QR code HERE.

This program was implemented September 20, 2021 and will remain in place for the foreseeable future for all entrants of Westerner Park, including employees, contractors, volunteers, and event organizers & attendees.

We look forward to the exciting events happening here at Westerner Park and will adapt as needed to make sure we are providing a safe experience.
