🎉 MIRROR MAYDAY IS BACK! 🎉

According to the historical archives (and every Albertan ever), May Long Weekend weather traditionally celebrates by behaving completely unhinged.

So we’re cautiously optimistic and aggressively checking the forecast ☀️

🏰 Bouncy Castles
🛍️ Outdoor Market
☕ Cake & Coffee
✨ Sparkle Tattoos from our resident elf, Sparklefarts!

Take a stroll through Mirror and check out the many activities happening downtown throughout the day!

Market Vendors include:
Kindred Spirit Candles
Spirit
Solex
Myth & Magic Creations
Scentsy
Crafts by Patience
Random Rosie
Doug McGirr Collectables

Plus more!

Bring the family, bring your community spirit, and cross your fingers for sunshine, all events are weather pending!
