Located on the St. George's River in the Bow River, Calgary's Zoo is similar to many large city zoos. You'll find many similar animals, but it's a fun outdoor activity nonetheless.
Hours are 9am to 5pm daily. $30CAD for adults.
Restaurants, grocers, shops, farmers' market, an IMAX theater--there is so much to see and do at Eau Claire Market. Just a stroll through can be fun for people watching and tasty treats.
This is a smaller casino just outside of downtown Calgary near the Victoria Park train station. There is a 24/7 poker room, slot machines, table games (Baccarat, Blackjack, Craps, Roulette, and Tile Pai Gow) and off track betting.
It's private, but maybe you know someone? Or your course has privileges? Because it is rated as one of Calgary's best courses, we thought you should know it's here! The course is settled along the Elbow River and there are 45 holes and an expansive Clubhouse overlooking the greens.
Who doesn't like to shoe shop? Gravitypope is rated as one of the best boutique stores in Calgary, and it's conveniently located in downtown. The shoe selection is well known, but gravitypope stocks other goods as well. Think global and curated.
When you watch a movie, there's nothing quite like the IMAX experience.
Hooray for a live country and folk music venue. Since Calgary is a Country/Western town at heart, some good acts come through these doors. Food is also served and includes calamari, poutine, yam chips, spinach salad, black bean burger, steak sandwich, Jambalaya, risotto and fried chicken.
Rated as one of the best people watching and pickup joints in Calgary--also one of the best places to catch a sporting event or play pool. Melrose doesn't fit into the nightclub category nor is it a typical sportsbar.
Calgary's largest and most popular park located on an island in the middle of Bow River. Just a few blocks walk from many downtown Calgary hotels.
Recently voted as best place to get a beer in Calgary.
Year-round there are loads of things to do at the once Canada Olympic Park. How about downhill karting, ziplining, bobsleighing or mountain biking? Yes, please. Just click "current activities" and start dreaming fun. In the winter, think tubing, skiing and snowboarding.
