Blog

Once Canada Day ends, it seems like the rest of summer just flies by. To help maximize your summer fun, we’re here to remind you of all the exciting summer activities still ahead in the Calgary and Chestermere areas!

Calgary Stampede

I’m sure we don’t have to remind you that we’re currently in the middle of the Stampede. Every summer, thousands of people descend on our city to take in the sights, sounds, smells and tastes of the Stampede. Living in the city, we can sometimes forget how amazing this annual event is. If you haven’t taken the time to check out the Stampede this year, here’s a lineup of concerts still to come:

TONIGHT – The Strumbellas
July 13 – Alessia Cara
July 14 – Ben Harper & The Innocent Criminals
July 15 – Whitehorse

Remember—all concerts are FREE with admission to Stampede Park!

Chestermere Water Festival

On July 22, be sure to make your way to John Peake Park for a day of family fun! There is a wakeboard competition, kids fun zone, artisan market and lake tours to keep the whole family occupied. At night, relax in the beer garden while taking in a show and fireworks! Get the whole day’s schedule here.

Calgary Bluesfest

From July 31 to August 6, the 13^th annual Calgary International Blues Festival returns to Shaw Millennium Park. Along with amazing concerts, there are also workshops and discussions about everything blues-related! Single day passes and festival passes are available—visit their website for more information!

Taste of Calgary

Sampling tickets are available for $1 each and can be used to try any of the food or beverage items.
