After a long Edmonton winter, May is the moment we’ve all been waiting for. The snow has finally cleared, the days are stretching longer — and South Edmonton Common was made for this time of year.

Dress for the Season

Spring in Edmonton means layering is still essential, but it’s also the perfect time to refresh your wardrobe with transitional pieces.

Sport Chek is stocked with performance and lifestyle apparel, while Winners and HomeSense offer rotating seasonal finds. Mark’s remains a reliable go-to for everyday Alberta-ready essentials.

Don’t miss: Swimco is celebrating its 51st anniversary with 15% off everything — May 5 only.

Refresh Your Outdoor Space

Patio season starts at home too. Whether you’re upgrading furniture or adding finishing touches, SEC has everything you need.

IKEA, Canadian Tire, RONA+, and Michaels all offer seasonal essentials for outdoor living, gardening, and home upgrades.
