Stampede Park

Nice venue for the Interactive Animal Experience on the fair grounds, in February. Very well run. Extra charges if you want to hold the baby kangaroos, etc. Food is available like pizza for $25, sandwiches for $16, and salads for $17. Lots of paid parking available.

Came here for the rodeo and had the best time. There was a fair that had so much to do and such fun fair food. If you've never come for a rodeo before, this is a great way to get introduced to a rodeo.

To be honest the stampede is the same year over year there is no creative or innovation to provide us with different experiences. The food inside become more and more expensive now on average it’s $20-$30 each food not like before it’s below $20 sometime below $10. It’s no longer like before. The rides are the same and plus there is lots crowd with limited seating available so we have to walk and eating the food at the same time. Parking is limited too and parking fee is super high if you don’t want to drive transit is crowded as well plus this year the C-Train is under construction so there is a lot of congestion near the station. Now the owner of Calgary Stampede is pursuing profit more than providing attendants better experience. Obviously they don’t want to invest into maintenance or getting some unique equipment or rides for us to experience. Very disappointed. I still remember before Covid we love go stampede every year now as a Calgarian we already feel bored about stampede

One of the greatest outdoor shows on earth. What can I say? But if you are coming from outside of Calgary, you should go to Banff first and have fun for 2,3 days and come to Calgary in stampede on the first day, enjoy the parade and cultural showing, attend the concert if you are into that, and you can visit the downtown. I personally find Sait residence for me while I am staying in Calgary for a room. That's all I have fun. 🤠

Wonderful show on earth ,very nice location and good overall experience. Only thing, same rides every year makes it little boring other wise its rocking

This is what we call fun. Food, drinks, shows and music, all in one deal. Canadian soldiers from Navy, Air Force and Ground Military helped to understand that how military vehicle works.
Country music and bike stunts were awesome. I guess, I am coming every year.
It was a Texas experience in Calgary. 🫡

I am sad that the Cococola stage is where it is now- too much concrete & not enough grass/green like before. Interesting how the food is all in one place; games all one place; rides all one place etc. I must say I’ve never seen the grounds look so clean during stampede!

Very crowded yesterday but to be expected as it was free admission! Lots of fun but the food at some of the food trucks were terrible (it was $13 for a plain burger, $6 for a kids hotdog and $5 for a small coke) other places were good and the mini donuts were delicious. Only other complaint is that the agricultural building felt very squished even with it being a large building. A lot of the areas were empty and then there were two short rows for the breeds of horses that was cramped pack with people. They should make it more flowing so that there is enough space for people to enjoy learning about the different breeds without everyone feeling like you are in a closed box. Besides that I highly recommend the Stampede and love going every year!

Great cultural festival to celebrates with family and friends. It also has some joyfully rides for all ages. But food is very expensive.
