Waste not, want not
While talking about Area 51 is fun, it’s pretty damn useless. What isn’t, though, is talking about how to protect this wicked planet of ours. Plastic-Free YYC & The Apothecary are hosting an unreal Zero Waste Festival with live tunes, eats, sustainability talks, and more!

Guac isn’t extra
Fiestaval’s a 3-day, massive celebration, and it’s just what we need to cleanse ourselves after Stampede. And by “cleanse ourselves”, we mean add more booze-fuel to the hangover-fire. It’s fine, everything’s fine.
When: Friday, July 19 – Sunday, July 21
Where: Olympic Plaza– 228 8th Avenue SE
Boogie’s barn burner
Boogie’s has been servin’ up burgers and rad vibes since 1969, so it’s only right we celebrate. Join ‘em at their Renfrew spot on July 21 for a dunk tank, wheel of fortune, a DJ, lawn games, and more!
When: Sunday, July 21 @ 12PM
Where: A-908 Edmonton Trail NE
Summer bod who?
Food truck party! Let’s go people, eat your faces off and enjoy glitter tattoos, balloon animals, candy carts, music, face painting, inflatables, and more!
When: Saturday, July 20 @ 4 PM
Where: 115 Evanston Drive NW
Get passionate
Up for a lil roadie? Good, ’cause this is worth it. Live music, original songs, Roman armor, incredible costumes, a massive amphitheatre– experience it all in the heart of the Canadian Badlands and watch a cast of hundreds tell an epic story on Canada’s largest outdoor stage.
When: Saturday, July 20 @ 12 PM
Where: 605 17th Street SW, Box 457, Drumheller
