Fire advisories lifted for City and County of Grande Prairie June 30

Jun 30, 2026 | 11:27 AM

Fire advisories for the City and County of Grande Prairie have been lifted.

Effective 9:00 a.m. June 30, the City lifted their advisory following recent rain and cooler temperatures lowering the wildfire danger in the area to low.

The County of Grande Prairie also lifted their advisory June 30, including for Beaverlodge, Sexsmith, and Wembley.

The change aligns with Alberta Wildfire’s decision to lift all restrictions in the Grande Prairie Forest Area.

While the risk has decreased, residents are encouraged to remain vigilant and follow all burning guidelines to ensure community safety.

“Preventing wildfires doesn’t fall on just one person or one department; it takes everyone,” said City of Grande Prairie Fire Marshal Chris Renyk. “Whether you’re putting out a cigarette properly or reminding a friend to check wind conditions before lighting a fire, small actions matter. We all have a role to play in keeping our community safe during fire season.”
