What do you tell your friends and family from other cities about life in Calgary?

Calgary has chinooks! In the middle of winter, a chilly day can turn into picnic-worthy weather in almost an instant.

Where do you take friends and family when they visit?

Summertime means festival time, from Stampede to GlobalFest and everything in-between. Otherwise, 17th Avenue, Kensington, Bridgeland, and Inglewood give our city a unique flavour and are always fun to visit.

How has the city influenced who you are or your organization?

GlobalFest was built to showcase and celebrate the cultures that come together in Calgary. The city’s spirit makes us thrive!
