SREETER: The Greatest Outdoor Show in The World

The Calgary Stampede is often called the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth, drawing hundreds of thousands of visitors from across Alberta, Canada, and around the world to celebrate Alberta's unique culture and western heritage.

But it's also a time when municipal leaders from every corner of the province come together to connect, collaborate, and celebrate Alberta.

At this year's Alberta Premier's Calgary Stampede Breakfast at McDougall House in downtown Calgary, municipal elected officials gathered to meet with colleagues, share ideas, and take part in one of the province's signature events.

We caught up with a few of them and asked a simple question:

What brings you to the Calgary Stampede?

From rural communities to Alberta's largest cities, municipal leaders shared why the Stampede remains an important tradition—and why it's more than just a celebration.
