The Central Alberta City of Red Deer is the latest addition to my collection of Instagrammable Wall Guides!
Finding Instagrammable Walls—mural walls, colourful walls, texture walls, really just any wall that photographs well—is one of my favourite ways to explore places I’m visiting.
Red Deer is located in the middle of Alberta, a 1.5 hour drive between the province’s two biggest cities Edmonton and Calgary, making it a popular and often necessary spot to drive through on your way south or north of the province.
But there’s a lot to experience right in Red Deer itself including its food + murals—which was the focus of my Feb 2023 sponsored visit with Tourism Red Deer.
I am always keeping an eye out for Instagrammable Walls, especially to capture moments when I travel, so when Red Deer started its Meet the Street Mural Festival back in 2021 and started adding some really nice walls + murals + artwork to the city, I had been eager to pop down to catalogue a few.
For context, my whole thing is that Instagrammable Walls don’t just have to be murals! Colourful buildings count too, and these make excellent Instagrammable Walls especially if you can find a stretch of uninterrupted wall tall and wide enough for you, though murals do comprise most Instagrammable Walls.
I certainly didn’t get to ALL the Instagrammable Walls in Red Deer, so if you come across more during your visit, be sure to share it on Instagram using #IGWallsofRedDeer or shoot me a message to add the wall to this guide, or check out the Meet the Street Mural Map!
