About Palmer

Learn more about the host city, Palmer.

Palmer is a small unorganized hamlet located 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) east of the town of Gravelbourg in the Rural Municipality of Sutton No. 103, Saskatchewan, Canada. The population of Palmer fluctuates during the year, hovering in the double digits with peak population occurring in the summer months. The main reason of this spike is due to the efforts of the residents to establish Palmer as a venue for performing artists. In 2006 the hamlet had a population of 27 people. It previously held the status of village until January 1, 2002. Palmer lies just immediately to the southeast of the intersection between Highway 43 and Highway 627.
