It’s your last chance to whoop it up!
The cowboys and cowgirls will be hitting the trails as the 2010 Calgary Stampede wraps up this weekend.
While many of us will be sad to see the 10 day party go away for another year, there’s definitely a lot of fun to be had before it goes.
There’s always the popular rides and midway games, but the music will be taking the spotlight this weekend.
There are a lot of acts taking the stage in these final days like Kid Rock who will be rocking the Saddledome tonight. Tomorrow its Jason Aldean and Miranda Lambert.
The headline musical acts on the coke stage include One Republic playing tonight, Default plays tomorrow and on Sunday Martina McBride belts it out for the free show.
In Nashville North its Dean Brody tonight, Hey Romeo tomorrow and Gord Bamford on the last day of the stampede.
For the kids, on the Coke Stage today Bob the Builder will appear at 11:00am or you can meet Dora at Jaycee Park.
The whole family can enjoy the Acrobatic Ice Show at the Stampede Corral on Saturday featuring olympic figure skaters.
Of course it wouldnt be the final weekend without the finals.
On Sunday the hooves will be hitting the dirt as the chuckwagons make the dash for cash and the horses and bulls will be bucking around as the cowboys compete for the rodeo payouts.
