The Calgary Stampede
A visit to the city centre of Calgary and the Calgary Stampede, a rodeo festival you have to go to if you can!
Calgary city centre
In the morning we stroled through the city centre of Calgary. We visited the library, the city hall and just walked around and feel the cities 'rodeo vibe'. Yes, if the Calgary Stampede is happening, you see in in the whole city.
Walk to the Stampede.
The Calgary Stampede
The Calgary Stampede is an annual rodeo, exhibition, and festival held every July for ten days in Calgary, It calls itself "The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth", and can only urge you to visit when you have the chance. It features one of the world's largest rodeos, a parade, midway, stage shows, concerts, agricultural competitions, chuck wagon racing, ... You have to buy separate tickets for the day and/or evening show. We went to the evening show, and it did not disappoint. It was a spectacular show with singers, dancers, a light and drone show, and it ended with spectacular fireworks. It was the best end of our holiday in Canada!
