Calgary Climate Hub Bike Bus
Can’t decide where to go? How about hopping on the Bike Bus that Calgary Climate Hub is rolling through Calgary? This isn't a race and it's not a lycra-required cycling event. The Neighbour Day Bike Bus is designed to be welcoming, social, and accessible for everyday riders. Whether you're a seasoned cyclist, someone who mostly sticks to pathways or haven't been on a bike in a looooong time, this ride is all about having fun, meeting people, and experiencing Calgary from a different perspective. On Neighbour Day, they'll be hopping on bikes and visiting a variety of community celebrations taking place in and around Calgary's downtown. Think of it as a rolling neighbourhood party: part bike ride, part community tour, and part urban adventure.

The Gathering at Moh’kinsstis
This Gathering is an opportunity to bring to life a long-held vision: a visible, purpose-built, Indigenous-led Gathering Place in Calgary. For one day, we are creating space for Indigenous Peoples and communities to gather in a way that reflects the strength, diversity, cultures, and presence of Indigenous Peoples across Treaty 7 and beyond. Guided by Elders and Knowledge Keepers, the day will centre ceremony, cultural teachings, artistic expression, music, storytelling, and meaningful connection. The Gathering is open to all community members and welcomes both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people to come together in a spirit of respect, learning, celebration, and relationship. Many artists (visual, music, and storytelling) will be joining their cultural showcase so be sure to check the link for more event information.
