The Big Dates — Book Your Stay Around Them
CALGARY STAMPEDE — July 9–18, 2027. Ten days of rodeo, concerts, and the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth. Stampede week is Calgary's busiest — the Dome is a 20-minute drive to the grounds, and dates go early..
CALGARY FOLK MUSIC FESTIVAL — July 22–25, 2027, Prince's Island Park. Four days of music on the river, a 20-minute drive from the Dome.
BLOCK HEATER — February 4–6, 2027. A winter music festival at The Confluence, downtown.
SPRUCE MEADOWS — Show jumping all season: February Classic Feb 26–28, 2027; May Classic May 6–9; National Jun 9–13; Continental Jun 15–20; Pan American Jun 30–Jul 4; Masters Sep 7–12, 2027.
CALGARY UNDERGROUND FILM FESTIVAL (CUFF) — April 15–25, 2027. The 24th edition — independent film in downtown Calgary.
CALGARY INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL (CIFF) — Annual, usually late September. 2027 dates not yet announced — check back, or book the Dome and we'll point you to the program.
GLOBALFEST — Annual, usually late August at Spruce Meadows. Fireworks, food, and culture from around the world. 2027 dates announced November 17, 2026.
ZOOLIGHTS — November 13, 2026 to January 3, 2027, nightly 5:30–9:30 p.m. at the Calgary Zoo. A winter-evening classic, and the Dome is a warm landing after a night out among the lights. Blackout dates Nov 17 and 24.
BANFF & LAKE LOUISE WINTER — The Rockies' winter season runs roughly November to May. Stay at the Dome the night before a ski day: Banff is about 1.5 hours away, and you wake up in a warm dome instead of a highway hotel.
