The 5 weirdest things happening in Calgary this week
Behind every Christmas Market posting and pop-up bar announcement, there is a Curiocity staff member searching Calgary-wide for the next best thing. Sometimes, on the search for the family-friendly, we come across some of the most eyebrow-raising, spine-tingling, sometimes mentally-taxing social functions, and gosh darn it, we just couldn’t keep them to ourselves any longer. Here are some of the weirdest things happening in Calgary this week. Who knows, maybe you’ll find something worth checking out!

Christmas Pet Photos with Santa
Pfft. Human children? Who needs ’em, right dog parents? Finally, people who understand. Hope that your fur-baby doesn’t bite Santa when you place em’ on the big guy’s lap for a photo that you’ll definitely use as this year’s Christmas card… and your next insta-post, and your Facebook cover photo, and your phone background. It’ll just be that precious.
