A liquor store open till 12 on weekends
On Friday and Saturday nights we're open till 12, so there's time for a run after dinner, a game or a late shift. The rest of the week we close at 10 PM. If you're cutting it close, call (825) 223-8787 before you head over.
Are there 24-hour liquor stores in Alberta?
No. Alberta's rules (AGLC) only allow retail liquor stores to sell alcohol between 9 AM and 2 AM, so no liquor shop or alcohol store in the province can stay open around the clock. Within that window, each store sets its own hours, which is why closing times vary. Ours are 10 PM through the week and midnight on Friday and Saturday.
Cold beer, late
Looking for a beer store open late? Our walk-in beer cooler keeps singles, six-packs and cases cold right up to closing: domestic favourites, imports and Alberta craft. Bagged ice and mixers are here too. See the beer store, or browse wine and spirits.
Late-night delivery through SkipTheDishes
Staying in? Delivery is through SkipTheDishes: City Liquor on SkipTheDishes. Ordering hours are as set on SkipTheDishes, so check the app for what's available tonight. There's no 24-hour alcohol delivery in Alberta either: AGLC requires a delivery order to leave the store between 9 AM and 2 AM, with 30 extra minutes to deliver. You must be 18+, and the person receiving the order needs valid photo ID. See how delivery works.
Late-night run, done right
- Bring ID. We ask anyone who looks under 25 for valid government-issued photo ID.
- Plan your ride. If you've been drinking, don't drive to the store. Use delivery or get a ride.
- Keep it closed. Alcohol in a vehicle has to be closed and out of easy reach. The trunk works.
