The Calgary Stampede, often called “The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth,” is a ten-day annual event held every July in Calgary, Alberta. It features one of the world’s largest rodeos, a parade, midway, stage shows, concerts, agricultural competitions, chuckwagon racing, and First Nations exhibitions.
The Stampede has deep roots, dating back to 1886 when the Calgary and District Agricultural Society held its first fair. The modern Stampede began in 1912, organized by American promoter Guy Weadick1. Today, it attracts over one million visitors each year.
The event is a significant part of Calgary’s identity, transforming the city into a festive “Cowtown” with residents and visitors donning western wear and participating in numerous pancake breakfasts and barbecues.
