Travelers passing through Edmonton International Airport (YEG) will get a taste of the Canadian Rockies with the installation of a full-scale Jasper-inspired cozy cabin experience.
The cabin, a partnership between Tourism Jasper, Edmonton International Airport and Knotty Pine Cabins, is located at Gate 16. The installation will offer passengers an immersive introduction to Jasper’s rugged landscapes, rich history, and warm mountain-town hospitality.
The activation features a scaled replica of a traditional Jasper cabin, inviting travellers to step inside and experience the cozy, rustic charm synonymous with the destination. Interior elements include a fireplace, rustic wood and leather furnishings, soft lighting, Hudson’s Bay blankets, and historic photographs highlighting Jasper’s storied past — from royal visits to legendary celebrity guests. Outside the cabin, travellers can relax into a classic red Adirondack chair while waiting for their flight.
Designed as a three-to-five year activation, the cabin will be refreshed seasonally and future additions to the cabin will include interactive elements such as QR codes linking to travel inspiration, cabin accommodations, and trip-planning resources. In addition to seasonal changes to the cabin, there will be a contest to win a Jasper getaway with cabin accommodation, activities, and flights for two.
“Partnerships like this bring destinations to life in our terminal and reinforce YEG’s role as a gateway to extraordinary experiences across Alberta and the Canadian Rockies,” said Myron Keehn, president and CEO of Edmonton International Airport. “By working closely with tourism partners like Tourism Jasper, we’re able to spark inspiration, support regional tourism and connect travellers to the places and stories that make our province so compelling.”
