Preview to the 'Masters' (Sept. 1) followed by the 'Masters' (Sept. 3-7)
Perfectly synchronised mounts. RCMP Meet & Greets. Canada’s most iconic riders and Alberta’s very own cavalry regiment return!🐎
Tiny legs. Big dreams. The corgi races are back! Bonus: Spruce Meadows’ Prairie Dogs team prove that not all heroes wear capes—some just have really great whiskers. 🐶✨
Calgary’s own genre-blending rockstars, The Frontiers, will crank out pop, rock, soul, and country bangers. Catch them at 1:30 p.m. and again at 3:15 p.m. Warning: spontaneous dancing is highly likely. 🎸🎤
This is not your average fairground fare. Think:
🍦 Screamers (soft-serve ice cream meets slushie = childhood in a cup)
🥟 Perogies + sausage rolls + British cheese = international yum tour
🍋 Giant lemonade + Vietnamese subs + tacos = how are you still reading this and not already in line?
The Horizons Art Pavilion is stacked with talent. From bold local pieces to internationally known names like Paul Van Ginkel and Mandy Stobo, it’s part gallery stroll, part “yep, that’s going on my wall.” 🎨
DISCOVER WHICH ARTISTS ARE HERE
Petting zoo with mini cows (yes, you read that right). Pony rides, crafts with Pinnovate, a bouncy castle, and a mini train. The kids are busy, you’ve got lemonade in hand—everybody wins. 🐮
It’s exactly what it sounds like: competitors doing legit jumping courses… on stick horses. It’s hilarious, oddly impressive, and probably the only sport where glue and googly eyes are part of the gear. 🏇😂
Spruce Meadows is just a down-home, feel-good spot where the whole family can kick back and enjoy time together.
