Get ready to chow down at Calgary’s most appetizing festival! The highly anticipated Taste of Calgary food festival is back July 31 to Aug. 4, 2025.
This free-admission event is every foodies’ dream, giving you the chance to sample the best eats, drinks, and music the city has to offer.
Attendees will experience global delights from a smorgasbord of vendors, including over 60 of Calgary’s most beloved and tastiest restaurants.
Live bands will perform while you chow down, making this a gastronomic experience like no other.
What to expect
Admission to Taste of Calgary is free. Attendees have the opportunity to purchase a series of “Taste Tickets” that they can use to redeem dishes. Each dish ranges from two to seven tickets.
That means you can get a taste of Calgary’s best bites from a variety of diverse cuisines. There will also be a handful of sweet treats and even some exploratory offerings (bear balls, anyone?)
The event will take place over 5 days from July 31 to Aug. 4, 2025, with the festival open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily.
Even leashed pets are allowed at the event. There may be a pup cup or two in store for your favourite pooch!
