Question 1

How can I volunteer?

Accepted Answer

Volunteers are the backbone of Regina Canada Day. To volunteer please head to the volunteer section of the website, and fill out the volunteer application form. We hope you join us!

Question 2

When do the fireworks start?

Accepted Answer

Fireworks start at 10:30 p.m. or later, depending on when the sun sets!  If a storm is imminent and the weather becomes a factor, we will try and hold off until the scheduled time, but for safety of everyone in the park and the fireworks team, we sometimes have to quickly make a decision whether to cancel or set them off right away. If a storm is threatening, I would ERR on the side of caution and come to the park earlier just in case Mother Nature forces us to begin the show early. Any firework delays will be communicated on our Facebook, and Instagram pages.
