Every place has its own way of entertaining its people. While Canadians spend a lot of time outside participating in sports and going on adventures, they also spend a lot of time indoors watching colorful displays. The average Canadian enjoys movies, music, and television shows in their spare time. It can also apply to a foreign pop-culture product that has a significant “Canadian connection,” such as a Canadian actor, director, or artist, that makes it stand out in the eyes of Canadians.
We have curated a list of events which you can enjoy.
Smoke ‘N’ Spurs Festival – Labour Day Weekend
Bareback Bronc Riding, Saddle Bronc Riding, Jr. Bull Riding, Team Roping, Tie-down Roping, Steer Wrestling, Barrel Racing, Jr. Barrel Racing, Ladies Breakaway Roping, and “the world’s most dangerous sport…BULL RIDING!” are among the Professional Rodeo Events featured at this event. Cowboys, cowgirls, clowns, acts…something there’s for everyone!
Gatineau Hot Air Balloon Festival
The Gatineau Hot Air Balloon Festival is held in Gatineau, Quebec, Canada, hosted by a non-profit organization. Hot air balloons of all shapes and colors are flown, and 300 exhibitions and performances totaling over 60 hours of programming are presented. Typically, about 200,000 people and 1,000 RVs attend. It takes place over four days during Labor Day Weekend in late August and early September.
Ottawa Comiccon
Sci-fi, horror, anime, video games, board games, and comic books are all represented at this pop-culture enthusiast gathering. Don’t put it off any longer; purchase your tickets online now. There are many variations of the convention. However, the vast majority have been altered somehow, whether by inserted humor or randomized words that don’t look even remotely credible.
Festival International de Jazz de Montreal
For nearly 40 years, the Festival International de Jazz de Montréal has been synonymous with a passion for music. The French-speaking city of North America has become the platform where fans of all jazz-related music rub hands with purists of jazz.
Carp Fair
The Carp Fair, Canada’s Best Little Fair, offers a fun-filled day in the country. You’ll find something for everyone with excellent music, great entertainment, and a massive midway. Feel the rush of all the twists, turns, and tumbles in the middle. Live music, world-class horse shows, President’s Choice SuperDogs, and our very own Rodeo are just a few of the attractions. Your kids will be giddy with delight in the Family Circle tent, which features magic performances and puppets, or at the Ag Tent, which includes a petting zoo and other activities.
Red & White Calgary Comic & Toy Expo
Comics, toys, manga, role-playing games, and much more are available at the Red & White Calgary Comic & Toy Expo, which is annually at the Red & White Club in Calgary, Canada. There will be a silent auction, an artist alley, and a costume contest.
