  Canada Day

  1. julNasjonaldagStengningerMye folk

  1 July is a statutory holiday across the country, moved to 2 July when it falls on a Sunday. Banks, government offices and many shops close, towns put on daytime concerts and parades with fireworks after dark, and hotels and ferries fill when it makes a long weekend. Kilde ↗

  Calgary Folk Music Festival

  Four days on Prince's Island Park in the river downtown, a fortnight after the Stampede and about as different in temperament as a city can manage. Tarps go down on the main-stage lawn at dawn. Kilde ↗

  1. nov – 31. marVindsesong

  Several times a winter a warm wind comes off the Rockies, an arch of cloud opens on the western horizon and the temperature climbs twenty degrees in a few hours. The snow goes, the ice rinks go with it, and half the city gets a headache.
