The Grandstand Show is making a highly anticipated return in 2024, promising an all-new, reimagined spectacle of entertainment.
This year’s event blends a tribute to the 80s rock era—characterized by big bands and even bigger hairstyles—with modern performances and technological showcases.
Audiences can enjoy a jukebox of classic rock hits, complemented by live performances from the Hunter Brothers and the Young Canadians, who will deliver a mix of award-winning country music and high-energy song and dance performances each night.
The Grandstand Show will also feature international acts like Josefina and Daniel, aerial artists from Buenos Aires who have gained recognition in Europe’s performing arts scene, and Tammy Firefly, a renowned performer from Las Vegas known for her work with Cirque Du Soleil and various global events.
Completing the lineup, the Urias Globe of Death Daredevils will perform their death-defying motorcycle stunts. This act, a family tradition through five generations, includes feats such as multiple motorcycles navigating a steel sphere at high speeds, demonstrating why they are a staple in daredevil entertainment globally.
Adding to the variety of performances, Boston Dynamics’ Spot robot will showcase its agility and dance skills, departing from its usual industrial and safety applications.
The Grandstand Show is part of the Calgary Stampede Evening Show, beginning at 7:45 p.m. Those attending the Evening Show can also enjoy the thrilling Chuckwagon Races, a staple of the Calgary Stampede.
The Indigenous Relay Racing teams will showcase their impressive skills at the Calgary Stampede. Riders race bareback at high speeds, swap horses, and continue their lightning-fast laps, creating an adrenaline-fueled spectacle at the conclusion of the Chuckwagon Races.
Calgary Stampede Evening Show begins with Chuckwagon Races and concludes with the Grandstand Show.
Tickets for the Evening Show at GMC Stadium at Stampede Grounds start at $53. The show runs nightly from July 5 to 14 at 7:45 p.m. and ends at approximately 11:15 p.m.
