MEDICINE HAT, AB – The City of Medicine Hat is now accepting bookings for Towne Square online through the city website.

Towne Square at 603 First St. is an outdoor venue for community gatherings, events, and activities.

Aaron Nelson, manager of cultural experiences and events says “the goal of Towne Square is to create a vibrant downtown while contributing to the vitality of the downtown neighbourhood.”

“We hope this space attracts residents and visitors to the downtown core and supports local shopping in the area.

Towne Square offers an open canopy area, eight market pods and two parking lots, all available for rent. A potable water station is also located on-site, as well as portable toilets.
