The stars will be out for the 2026 Calgary Stampede Grandstand Show, as Alberta’s own High Valley lights up GMC Stadium.
The top-selling Canadian band in country music history, the group will be bringing its chart-topping hits and high energy for 10 nights.
“There’s nothing like the Calgary Stampede,” said Brad Rempel, lead singer of High Valley, in a release. “To be back in Alberta and headlining the Grandstand Show is incredibly special for us, and we’re ready to bring everything we’ve got to these 10 nights.”
The band will be joined by none other than the Young Canadian and the Grandstand Band, while a live DJ is expected to bring electronic music and country together into the evening.
Other acts include America’s Got Talent finalists The Bello Sisters and Argentinian acrobats Duo Soma, along with world champion Irish dancers The Gardiner Brothers, and the Sylla Brothers with their “Wheel of Death.”
Additionally, “Stampede in the Sky,” a reimagined drone and pyrotechnic experience, will feature music by High Valley. Organizers say it will showcase agriculture-inspired imagery, along with staging that elevates the Grandstand Band 16 feet into the air.
Lastly, the Evening Show is capped off with the iconic fireworks show, which usually marks the end of the night on the Stampede grounds.
Tickets for the show, which includes the Rangeland Derby and the relay races, are available on the Stampede website.
