a winter bbq
Edmonton - February 2 | 4-7pm @ The Butchery
Join the Alberta Hospitality Association for an evening designed to bring owners and operators together in a relaxed, social setting. This event celebrates the people behind Alberta’s hospitality industry, offering a chance to connect outside the day-to-day of service and operations.
Enjoy chef-driven BBQ prepared over open flame, featuring elevated bites that highlight thoughtful technique and bold flavour. Fine cocktails, music, and firelight.
This event is exclusively for owners and operators within the Alberta Hospitality Association and is intentionally designed as a low-pressure, come-as-you-are experience. No programming, no panels, just good food, good drinks, and time spent with peers who understand the industry.
Whether you stay for a quick drink or settle in for the evening, this is an opportunity to reconnect, unwind, and enjoy hospitality as a guest for once.
