There are 10 days in July that show the world what makes Calgary so special. Ten incredible days that help define the city and allows it to showcase their western hospitality and fun-loving spirit.
Each year, visitors come from across North America and around the world to experience the heart-stopping action of one of the world's roughest and richest Rodeos, the world's top Chuckwagon Races, the Grandstand Show, world-class agricultural activities and adrenalin-pumping rides at North America's largest mobile midway and one of Western Canada's largest music festivals.
In the Indian Village, visitors step back in time to share in authentic Plains Indians' cultural practices. And, that's just the big stuff. You can't see everything, but each year, a million people try.
The Calgary Stampede is so large and so iconic it almost defies description. But in the world of all things cowboy, the 98-year-old downtown event, held in and around Stampede Park, is the top of the mountain. So take your pick: bull riding, barrel racing and more in the world's richest, most competitive tournament-style rodeo; the world's premier chuckwagon derby, featuring 36 teams of horses and drivers; or one of Canada's largest music festivals, with five stages and 300 performers, including a slate of international country music headliners.
