Seniors’ Week has been recognized since 1986 to celebrate and recognize the contributions seniors make to enhance the quality of life in Alberta. Seniors’ Week was inspired by the vision of the late Alice Modin. 38 years ago, Modin began a campaign to start a seniors’ day in Strathcona County that helped pave the way for this annual event.

The week of festivities is kicked off with a provincial launch event co-hosted by the Alberta government and a community or organization.

Provincial launch host

The Town of Banff and Alberta’s government will partner to host this year’s provincial launch event on June 3, 2024.

More information will be provided shortly.
