 West Edmonton Mall
Welcome to West Edmonton Mall, the planet’s largest shopping and entertainment centre with more than 800 stores and services. With 28.2 million visitors a year, it’s also Alberta’s top tourist destination with its world-class attractions.

Nine exhilarating attractions await you at the mall, with 58 entrances, 20,000 parking spaces, two mini-golf courses and 21 movie theatres — all within a 493,000-square-metre floor space (the equivalent of 115 football fields). The mall has seven listings in the Guinness Book of Records: World’s Largest Indoor Amusement Park, Car Park, Indoor Wavepool, Indoor Lake, Indoor Triple-Loop Rollercoaster and the World's Tallest Indoor Permanent Bungee Tower.
Check out Edmonton Oilers stars in practice on our NHL-sized Ice Palace rink. Or lace up your own skates. Acquire a taste for New Orleans and dance the night away on Bourbon Street. Shop the deals in Chinatown. Sip a cappuccino on Europa Boulevard. Take your puppy to daycare. Bowl in Ed’s Rec Room. High-five a Sea Lion. Marvel at the antics of our African Penguin colony. You can even hurl yourself off the heights of the Blue Thunder Bungee Jump.
West Edmonton Mall’s superior attractions, events and distinctive stores have promoted West Edmonton Mall into the ranks of the truly great.
 Consider, for example, the retail outlets and restaurants to be found only at West Edmonton Mall (you won't find them elsewhere in the city): Sephora (first in Western Canada); Marciano (first in Alberta); Miss Sixty (first in Western Canada); H & M (first in western Canada); Town Shoes, Make Up Store (first in Canada); L’Occitane (first in Edmonton); Mandarina Duck (first in North America); and MR MIKES Steakhouse and Bar.
