Time to start looking for your cowboy boots; Wednesday marks 100 days until The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth returns.
From fireworks to fancy deep-fried delicacies, there’s always something for everyone at the Calgary Stampede.
If you haven’t already, it may be a good time to start looking into your plans for July 5-14.
Performances from blockbuster artists like the Dixie Chicks and Tim McGraw have already sold out.
Tickets are also going fast for events like the rodeo, the grandstand and the chucks.
Other artists planning to swing through town that week include Carly Rae Jepsen, Simple Plan and Karl Wolf.
And of course, fan favourite snacks like the beef bacon sandwich, deep fried pickle chips and mini donuts will likely be back as well.
