It's quite small too, you can pretty much go through the whole thing(including waiting in line for food) in an hour.

The Heritage Festival, however, is outstanding! Went to that for the first time last summer, and I'm definitely going again. It's massive too, definitely an all-day thing if you wanna see everything. The different cuisines were great too, I'm still craving whatever the thing was called I had from the Bangladesh exhibit. Idk if Calgary has something similar(haven't lived there in 4 years), but if you're up here over Aug. long weekend I'd recommend checking it out.
Based on what you and Ichoy describe, I'm thinking Edmonton's Heritage Fest is similar to our Global Fest.
