Where to Park for the Festival

There is no public parking available at North Glenmore Park during the festival on Saturday, August 8 and Sunday, August 9, 2026.

Festival participants, volunteers and spectators must use one of the designated festival shuttle access points:

  • Mount Royal University

New for 2026: Anderson Station Shuttle Connection

Festival attendees now have another convenient way to reach the festival.

Parking is subject to availability and Calgary Transit parking regulations. Please follow the festival signs and directions from volunteers when you arrive.

This new access point is especially convenient for attendees travelling from south Calgary or connecting through Calgary Transit’s Red Line.

No Public Parking at North Glenmore Park

Parking enforcement officers will be onsite throughout the weekend.

  • Do not park on the grass.

  • Illegally parked vehicles may be ticketed or towed.

Each registered race team will receive one Team Drop-off Pass to temporarily deliver tents, equipment and team provisions. The pass is for drop-off only and does not provide parking at the festival site.

After unloading, the vehicle must leave North Glenmore Park and proceed to one of the designated festival parking or shuttle access points.

Bicycle Parking at the Festival

Bicycle racks will be available at the festival site for attendees arriving by bike.

Please bring a secure bicycle lock. Bicycles must be parked in the designated bicycle parking area and must not block walkways, emergency routes or festival entrances.

Plan Your Trip

Choose the option that works best for you:

Take Calgary Transit to Anderson Station and connect with the free festival shuttle, park at Anderson Station and ride the shuttle, or park free at Mount Royal University and take the shuttle directly to the festival entrance.
