Alberta Rockies

Check out the awesome festival lineup Alberta has to look forward to this July

There’s a buzz on the ski hills, spreading outwards to other outdoor live venues and festivals as we break into spring in Western Canada.

Let these cool winter events cure your cabin fever, as you embrace sub-zero temperatures and don your coziest thermal underthings to gather outdoors in relative safety.

These are tough times for musicians who thrive off playing in front of a live audience.

I doubt there will be many times in our life that we can shout, “Happy Sesquicentennial!” so we better practice saying it without stumbling over our lips. Happy Ses - qui – cen – tennial. Easy.

What makes a summer festival for you? Star-studded musical lineups that you have to line up for, or something a little more low-key and casual?

Red or white. Ale or lager. Savoury, spicy or sweet.
