Calgary Stampede Evening Show

Experience the greatest outdoor show on Earth as the Calgary Stampede comes alive each evening at GMC Stadium. The Evening Shows are the crown jewel of the legendary Calgary Stampede, blending heart-pounding rodeo competition with dazzling entertainment under the open Alberta sky. From July 4 through the final night of the festival, thousands of fans pack the grandstands to witness elite cowboys and cowgirls battle for glory in events that define the spirit of the West.
