A massive '20s-themed carnival is coming to Edmonton in 2021. 

Fort Edmonton Park announced on Wednesday, August 26, that they're launching their "Light The Midway" campaign, a project that's going to transform the park into the 1920s Edmonton Summer Exhibition. They're asking the public to purchase lightbulbs to meet the fundraising goal.

The Midway is set to have tons of rides, games, food, and merchandise stalls. Not to mention plenty of twinkling lights. 

According to the campaign page, they've raised $37,000 thus far.
