What is there to do in Calgary?

Answer 1

Depends on the month.

Year around their is the Calgary Tower. There is also Heritage Park. You could visit Banff which is roughly an hour drive from the edge of the city. Another park you could visit is Fish Creek Provincial park. And of course there is the Calgary Zoo. The Glenbow Museum is an all-around museum.

In the winter there is COP (Canada Olympic Park) and in July there is the Calgary Stampede. If its warm out you could also go down to Okotoks to the Big Rock (Okotoks Erratic). Another place outside of Calgary is Drumheller which has the Tyrell Museum.

If you're into hockey you could get some tickets to a Flames game. Or if you're into football you could get tickets to a Stamps game. If you like Skateboarding then you could look up Shaw Millenium Park which was at one point the largest skate park in the world. (not sure if it is anymore)

There are lots of festivals along Stephen Avenue and you could also go to the Eau Claire Market.

The largest mall in Calgary is Chinook Center with 200 stores and 12 anchor stores.

There are more things such as the Calgary Farmers Market.

If you're not going for another 18 months then you could go to the Devonian Garden's which are currently being renovated. If you have children or just like rides, there is Calaway park, a short way out of Calgary. It has rides (Roller Coasters etc.) food courts and games.
