Calgary is most famously known for the greatest outdoor show on earth, the Calgary Stampede! It runs every July for ten days and it’s a giant outdoor carnival. There are professional rodeos going on for the entire time, and there are rides and games to entertain families. The entire city dresses western, and everyone comes together for the fun of Stampede. Performers come from all around the world to perform on the outdoor stage, The Coke Stage. There is a dance and singing show every night put on by the Young Canadians, a youth performing troupe. From cotton candy to deep fried oreos all the way to rollercoasters, the Stampede is an event you don’t want to miss!
Calgary is also known for the 2008 Grey Cup champions, the Calgary Stampeders. In 2008 they beat the Montreal Alouettes to bring home the Grey Cup! This season the Grey Cup Championship and celebrations are being held in Calgary, and the Stampeders are going to try and win the cup again. This football season, there are ten home games which will be held at McMahon Stadium. Tickets are range from 29-49$. Attending a football game is an excellent family outing, there is something for everyone! For the girls in your family there are the Calgary Stampeder Outriders, the dance/cheer squad for the Stampeders, and then there is the football game for the men. So come on down and cheer on the Grey Cup Champs!
Just outside of Calgary, about an hour away, there is the town of Banff. You can see the mountains and Rockies from Calgary, so it would be a lovely trip to visit. The town of Banff has little shops running down either side of the main street. A main attraction Banff has to offer is the hot springs. It is a man made pool that is filled with natural mineral water that is as hot as a hot tub, but the temperature is completely natural! Banff offers beautiful sight seeing, and breath taking views, and it can almost be guaranteed that you will see wildlife!
