The 32nd edition of the expo runs November 11 to 14, returning to Westerner Park in Red Deer, Alberta.

Highway Thru Hell chronicles the operations of Jamie Davis Motor Truck, a heavy vehicle rescue and recovery towing company based in Hope, B.C. and Lac la Biche, Alberta. The series documents the hardships and triumphs of Jamie Davis, his staff and their competitors as they work along the treacherous highways of the B.C. interior and Northern Alberta.
