“Straight from the heart of Belgium, this authentic mahogany mirror tent transports audiences back to a time of glamour, mystery, and excitement,” said Explore Edmonton.

Spiegeltents were used in the early 20th century as dance halls that would travel between cities for fairs, according to Explore Edmonton.

Local artists will perform at the Spiegeltent daily, including artists from the Grindstone Theatre, Burlesque Follies, Thousand Faces Festival and more.

The world’s largest inflatable obstacle course will make its first appearance in Canada this summer.

Named The Monster, the course is 300 metres long and has 40 obstacles including a slide that is more than five-and-a-half storeys tall, said Explore Edmonton.

“This ultimate party playground is fun for parents, kids and adults who want to relive their dream of being in a 90’s game show,” the festival said.

Advance tickets are on sale now on the K-Days website.
