Officials with the Alberta government say Lieutenant Governor Salma Lakhani will host the first New Year’s Day Levee of her tenure at historic Government House in Edmonton on Sunday, Jan. 1, 2023.

The event was not held in the previous two years due to the pandemic.

“I am very excited to resume this time-honoured tradition. Everyone is welcome to attend and my husband, Zaheer, and I are looking forward to meeting people and sharing best wishes for a wonderful 2023!” says Her Honour, the Honourable Salma Lakhani.

The levee takes place from 12-3 p.m.

The event is free and open to the public. For the first time, guests will have the ability to register for tickets on Eventbrite at https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/449593936567. While pre-registration is not necessary, officials say it is highly recommended to ensure that everyone can be accommodated.
