Community Programs

The Calgary Stampede wants to help all Calgarians and southern Albertans celebrate in true western style – year-round! Whether you host an event in your community, at your office, or on Stampede Park, we have the experience and the tools to help make your celebration memorable.

If you are planning a western-themed community event and need help to make it just right, our community event bookings are for you. Volunteers from the Promotion committee will greet and "brand" your guests. The Stampede Caravan offers a tasty pancake breakfast and entertainment. Harry the Horse is a fun addition to spread Stampede cheer and our Royalty add western glamour to any event.

The Western Spirit program has been designed to recognize businesses and communities that demonstrate and encourage their employees to exhibit western spirit by decorating their premises in western motif and dressing western in celebration of the Calgary Stampede.

Volunteers from the Promotion committee will travel the city throughout the week prior to Stampede and during Stampede to view displays and staff participation. Recognition will be given instantly to any business/community group presenting great western spirit.

If you would like to bring your group to Stampede Park throughout the year, our Sales and Events team is ready to create an event with true western flair.
