Calgary 
Events Description
Celebrate UCalgary’s 60th birthday at our Main Campus with a day full of festivities for everyone—students, faculty, staff, retirees, alumni, donors, partners, and friends. This milestone belongs to our entire community.
Enjoy a full day of activities including live music and free food at the Calgary Stampede Community Stage, interactive trivia at the Den, campus history displays, and engaging conversations hosted by the UCalgary Senate featuring Chancellor Jon Cornish and other inspiring Canadians. Families won’t want to miss the chance to be part of a world record attempt for the most people dressed head‑to‑toe as dinosaurs—so dust off those dino costumes and join the fun!
With free parking available on the south campus lots and at McMahon Stadium, UCalgary60 Community Day is the perfect way to spend a spring Saturday together.
