Things to Do This Weekend in Calgary (Oct 10–12)

Calgary’s rolling into the weekend with the kind of energy that makes staying in feel like a crime. From folk storytellers and indie rock nights to full-on haunted mayhem and cinematic magic, the city’s putting on a stacked lineup. Grab a jacket, charge your phone, and dive into what’s happening.


Tyson Ray Borsboom at King Eddy

If you’re in the mood for songs that hit like late-night road trips, Tyson Ray Borsboom’s set at King Eddy is the move. His blend of country, folk, and alt-rock lands somewhere between heartfelt confessional and barroom anthem. With Denver Venoit opening and a full band onstage, this show promises a warm-lit atmosphere and sharp songwriting that lingers.
