GlobalFest

GlobalFest is an annual cultural and fireworks festival in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
The festival has been held every August since 2003 (except 2020, when it was cancelled), and is organized by The Calgary Fireworks Festival Society.
GlobalFest consists of different components: the OneWorld Festival (with Cultural Pavilions, ethnic food kiosks, and a vendor Night Market) the International Fireworks Festival (with up to 6 fireworks presentations from up to 5 international teams), and Alberta's largest drone show.
In 2026, GlobalFest moved from the Elliston Park location to Spruce Meadows citing space, accessibility, and parking constraints being some of the reasons behind the move.
