The Calgary Stampede looks a little different this year and the move towards outdoor entertainment includes a new live music experience—Stampede Summer Stage.
The stage is a throwback to Summertown, an outdoor music event the Stampede held in the 1970s. It will feature an all-Canadian lineup with a variety of genres, from JJ Shiplett and Jess Knights to Classified and The Trews.
The Stampede Summer Stage offers live music daily from July 8-18 and is free to attend with admission to the grounds. Visit the Calgary Stampede's website for more information and for the Stampede Summer Stage lineup.
