First introduced earlier this summer, The Canada Strong Pass will also return in the summer of 2026, offering opportunities to discover and celebrate even more of what Canada has to offer, which is quite a lot.
The dates are June 19th to September 7th, 2026.

25% off camping and overnight stays with Parks Canada

As a reminder, The Canada Strong Pass is not a physical pass that you need to purchase, sign up for, or collect. Simply visit any participating Parks Canada site, museum, gallery, or VIA Rail to benefit from free admissions or discounts. Learn more about the pass eligibility details.
