CALGARY (YYC)

Framed by the majestic peaks of the Canadian Rockies and the winding Bow River, the city is famous for the Calgary Stampede, the world’s largest outdoor rodeo held every July. Visitors enjoy panoramic views from the Calgary Tower, explore the whimsical Rock Garden, or walk the historic streets of Heritage Park. As a sun-drenched gateway to five UNESCO World Heritage sites, Calgary offers a perfect blend of high-energy festivals, elite dining, and breathtaking wilderness access.
