The Edmonton Mountain Bike Alliance is thrilled to announce that the Edmonton Bike Park is officially happening!
Thanks to an approved $612,999 grant from the Government of Alberta’s Community Facility Enhancement Program (CFEP), we now have the final piece of funding needed to begin construction.
Breaking Down the Funding
Here’s how we made it happen:
Government of Alberta CFEP Grant: $612,999
City of Edmonton RPFIP Grant: $407,000
Private Sponsorships & Donations: $177,000
In addition, EMBA and the City of Edmonton are working to finalize commitments around an operations plan to support bike park maintenance and ensure its long-term success.

Why This is a Huge Win for Edmonton’s Riders
The Edmonton Bike Park will be the first of its kind in the city, providing:
✅ A safe, dedicated space for progression
✅ Flow trails, jump lines, and skills areas
✅ A key piece of Edmonton’s long-term mountain biking vision
This project is the result of years of community engagement, advocacy, and collaboration between EMBA, the City of Edmonton, and Alberta’s mountain biking community.
