Things to do in Calgary this weekend

Calgary weekends start Friday around 5 p.m. when the +15 empties out and the Beltline starts filling up. Friday nights lean toward concert dates at the Saddledome, MacEwan Hall and the Palace, with the bigger comedy headliners running two shows at Comedy Cave or the Laugh Shop.

The 17th Avenue strip between 4th and 8th Streets SW runs at full volume from 9 p.m. through closing, and the rooftop patios at Major Tom and Lulu Bar pull a steady downtown crowd from happy hour through last call. Saturdays are the broadest day on the calendar — Flames matinees and evenings between October and April, Stampeders home games at McMahon in the summer, festival days on Prince’s Island and at Fort Calgary through warm-weather months, and the full grid of theatre, concert and club programming in the evening.

The Inglewood Sunday Market runs along 9th Avenue SE on warm-weather Sundays with food trucks, live buskers and the Ironwood Stage hosting weekend matinees. Kensington keeps a steady rotation of acoustic and folk shows at Broken City, the Globe Cinema runs Sunday repertory screenings, and the Bow River pathway is full of cyclists and runners from sunrise.

Sunday nights are quieter than Friday and Saturday but the open-mic and singer-songwriter circuit at the Ironwood, Mikey’s Juke Joint and the Blues Can in Inglewood keeps live music going seven nights a week, and brunch lines along 4th Street SW and in Bridgeland run deep through midday.
