Calgary Entertainment
Calgary is home to the Southern Alberta Jubilee Auditorium. (Its twin sister is located in Edmonton.) Fondly called the "Jube", this cultural hub has been the site for Broadway musicals and all sorts of stage productions including the Alberta Ballet, the Calgary Opera, the Decidedly Jazz Dance Works, and numerous festivals.
Calgary's theatre companies include One Yellow Rabbit, Theatre Calgary, and Alberta Theatre Projects. The city also gave birth to Theatresports, or improvisational theatre games. But that's not even half of it: you can also listen to the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra and several world class marching bands, including the Calgary Round-Up Band, the Calgary Stetson Show Band, and the Calgary Stampede Showband, a two-time World Association for Marching Show Bands champion.
The Glenbow Museum is Calgary's most prominent museum, and it is the largest throughout Western Canada. For something on the historical side, the Museum of the Regiments features sights and sounds of Canadian military history.
Calgary's sports teams include the Flames (hockey), Stampeders (football), Hitmen (junior hockey), Roughnecks (lacrosse), and Vipers (baseball). The Pengrowth Saddledome is a uniquely-shaped venue and home to most of Calgary's sports teams. Aside from winter sports, which you can enjoy at the Canada Olympic Park and the Olympic Oval, fishing and golfing are also popular in the city.
