Alberta Cannabis Sales
Apr, 2026
Overview
Alberta’s cannabis market continues to show resilience, with total sales reaching $81.8 million in April 2026. Over the past year, the market has experienced some volatility, but overall, sales have remained robust, with a modest year-over-year decline of -2.1%. Pricing has remained relatively stable, with the average item price at $23.40 in April 2026, down slightly from the previous month but still higher than a year ago. This stability in pricing, despite a slight dip in sales, suggests a maturing market where consumers are willing to pay for quality and variety.
While unit sales have decreased by -10.4% year-over-year, the market’s ability to maintain higher average prices indicates a shift toward premiumization and possibly larger pack sizes or higher potency products. Month-over-month, Alberta saw a 1.0% increase in sales and a 2.9% rise in units sold, hinting at a potential rebound as consumer preferences evolve.

Market Comparison
Alberta remains one of Canada’s largest cannabis markets, but its recent performance lags behind some peers. In April 2026, Alberta’s sales of $81.8 million are nearly on par with British Columbia ($79.9 million) but well behind Ontario ($180.1 million). Saskatchewan, while much smaller ($21.2 million), is experiencing rapid growth.

Category Performance
Edibles stand out as a category bucking the broader market trend, posting a 15.3% year-over-year sales increase in April 2026, even as total unit sales dropped sharply (-35.0% YoY). This divergence points to a significant rise in average item price, likely driven by premium products and innovative formats. Within edibles, Gummies dominate, accounting for the vast majority of sales and showing a 20.6% YoY sales growth despite a steep decline in units sold.
