Saskatoon Fire Department opens its doors to acknowledge Fire Prevention Week

The Saskatoon Fire Department (SFD) is recognizing the National Fire Protection Association’s annual Fire Prevention Week, taking place on October 4-10, 2026. This year’s theme, “Charge into Fire Safety: Safe Charging is a Superpower,” highlights important safety tips on how to plug in, power up and stay safe.

To raise awareness and engage the community, the SFD is kicking off Fire Prevention Week early with three Open House across Saskatoon. These family-friendly events offer a behind-the-scenes look at fire services and provide valuable fire safety education.

Residents are encouraged to visit the SFD on the following days:
Thursday, September 24
Fire Station No. 8
207 Slimmon Road
6:00-8:00 p.m.

Thursday, October 1
Fire Station No. 4
2106 Faithful Avenue
6:00-8:00 p.m. 

Thursday, October 8
Fire Prevention Station
1906 York Avenue
6:00-8:00 p.m.

Each open house will include fire engine tours, presentations by the Fire Prevention team, delicious treats, fire swag and the opportunity to meet SFD members from across the department.

“These events are a great way for residents of all ages to connect with our fire service and learn how to stay safe, especially when it comes to the growing use of lithium-ion batteries in our homes,” says Director of Community Relationships, Ryan Bradley.

Everyone is welcome. Come learn, explore and help spark a safer community!
