The festive CPKC Holiday Train — previously called the CP Holiday Train — is back again for 2024, and this week it's in Alberta.

The magical train brings festive magic to different towns and cities all over Canada and the U.S. during the holiday season. Lit up with holiday decor the train puts on free concerts and is all in support of local food banks around the country.

It's free entry and you can see artists like Tyler Shaw, Alana Springsteen, and Magic! perform. CPKC does encourage people to bring food or money to donate to local food banks.

The holiday train just kicked off its Alberta fun in Medicine Hat on Sunday, but there are lots of stops throughout the week that you can check out.
