Calgary Stampede and Exhibition

Canada's most popular tourist attraction, the annual event draws millions of visitors worldwide. Billed "The Greatest Show on Earth", the entire city of Calgary turns into a cowboy town for 10 days. The rodeo is a heart-stopping display of saddle bronc and bareback riding, wild horse races, and bullriding. The Grandstand Show is a series of chuckwagon races and rousing musical numbers. The carnival, called Stampede Midway, houses a variety of food and gaming booths as well as a casino.
