Calgary’s downtown core is about to light up the night! The 3rd annual Glow YYC is back and brighter than ever. Brace yourselves, puns are coming.
Unfortunately, this event almost feels like a flicker in the calendar year. The festival will only run for 3 days this February, but luckily for those who either haven’t made plans for Valentine’s or who are short on cash, one of those 3-days will fall on V-Day.

Yeah, it’s chilly. However, there’s no reason you should let below zero temperatures hold you back from experiencing this insane weekend in all it’s glow-ry. This festival is more than just a few hundred bulbs and a good picture, we promise!
Glow is completely free to attend and practically takes over the downtown core. In addition to the luminescent displays, this festival will also have food, activities, fire pits, and pop-up ice patios, which are super cool and the most efficient way to keep your drink cold.
