Calgary Stampede

CALGARY, ALBERTA

Get your chaps out of storage for North America’s largest event (July 6–July 16). The toughest cowboys on the continent compete for up to $60,000 in prizes while families enjoy carnival rides, chuckwagon races and a parade. Stampede Park is close to downtown Calgary, so expect city lodgings, especially budget and family-friendly places, to fill up quickly.
