The Calgary Stampede provides in-kind donations – such as Rodeo tickets, Evening Show tickets, and other unique Stampede experiences – for local, not-for-profit organizations that enhance the community and whose membership and activities are open to the public. Donations must be used for a local not-for-profit or charitable fundraiser.

Please fill out the application form below showing that you meet all criteria. Due to processing time, requests must be submitted a minimum of one month prior to the event date.

Requests must meet all of the following criteria:

  • Local organization (the organization’s purpose and activities are focused locally in Southern Alberta)

  • Not-for-profit or charitable group

  • The donation will be used to generate funds for a not-for-profit or charitable cause, i.e., for a silent auction, live auction or raffle (we do not provide donations that will be used as prizes or ‘giveaways’)

  • Organization's membership and activities are open to the general public

The Stampede does not provide donations to the following:

  • Political campaigns

  • Private or exclusive clubs - including sports teams

  • Religious Organizations

  • Schools (unless the school is a registered charity)

  • For-profit organizations raising funds for employee events, such as golf tournaments and holiday parties

  • Private "Stampede" parties

  • Groups residing outside of Southern Alberta

  • The Calgary Stampede does not donate cowboy hats or Stampede pins

Please note: Donation items must be picked up from the Stampede Headquarters building in Calgary – we are unable to mail donated items. A member of our team will notify you by email when your request has been processed. Depending on the submission date, requests are typically processed three weeks prior to your event.
