285, 2323 - 32 Ave. N.E.

Come see the Trico Homes International Fireworks Festival, the biggest annual fireworks festival west of Quebec and east of the Canadian Rockies!

GlobalFest has the whole world in its hands with the OneWorld Festival with 18 cultural pavilions, 13 ethnic food booths, 3 stages, international night market and a children's area. Two licensed areas feature beverages from around the world.

Ethno-cultural performances start at 6:15 nightly on each of the three stages. 

GlobalFest - Alberta's Most Explosive Festival - is located at Elliston Park in East Calgary. Elliston Park features a fabulous natural green space and the lake at Elliston Park serves as the central focal point. Elliston Park is located on 17th Avenue SE (International Avenue) and 60th Street. There is no fixed seating in the park so we encourage patrons to bring their own lawn chairs or blankets.  Blankets and jackets are also something to consider bringing along as evenings tend to cool down.

East Calgary is the most ethnically diverse community in Calgary and is where the world truly does all come together.
