The end of summer is in sight, and boy, wasn’t it fun? Yet the end of everyone’s favourite season isn’t anything to get too upset about, especially when we have autumn to look forward to! If you’re visiting Calgary during the early part of the season, from middle to the end of September, then you’ll find plenty of fun events waiting to be enjoyed. Coming up we have a family fun day, the chance to see a local sporting event, and a chance to pick up a one of a kind souvenir. Check out all the details below!

Friday night football

Who doesn’t love a game of football on a Friday night? On September 28, the Calgary Stampeders will be taking on the Toronto Argonauts at the McMahon Stadium. As well as a terrific game of football, you’ll also be able to see an awesome fireworks display lighting up at the sky.
