Best known as home to the 'Greatest Outdoor Show in the World,' the Calgary Stampede, held annually each July, Calgary offers much more than just cowboys. As the gateway to the Canadian Rockies, with Banff just a short 1.5-hour drive away, Calgary is a city worth discovering.
Explore the Calgary Tower for panoramic views, and visit the Glenbow Museum to learn about Indigenous culture, early settler life, and modern-day art. Step back in time at the Heritage Park Historical Village, a pre-1914 prairie railway town, and explore the story of music in Canada at Studio Bell, home of the National Music Centre.
Within short driving distances from Calgary, visit two UNESCO World Heritage Sites: Dinosaur Provincial Park in Drumheller, where over 35 species of dinosaurs have been discovered, and Head-Smashed-In Buffalo Jump, one of the best-preserved buffalo jumps in North America.
Calgary combines vibrant city life with easy access to natural wonders, making it a perfect destination for adventure and cultural exploration. Start planning your Calgary adventure today!
