Calgary Stampede unveils poster and promises pre-pandemic-style event this year

BY The Canadian Press, Mar 31, 2022 12:18 AM - REPORT AN ERROR

Officials with the Calgary Stampede have begun the countdown to this year's Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth.

Stampede president Steve McDonough today unveiled the poster for 2022's popular rodeo and exhibition.

The poster, designed by 19-year-old artist Kane Pendry of Edmonton, captures the spirit of the rodeo's relay races. McDonough says, unlike last year, this will be a full event similar to pre-pandemic times.

COVID-19 forced Stampede officials to scale back last year on the parade and other attractions.

The popular chuckwagon races were cancelled.

McDonough says there will be a full parade through the downtown to kick off the Stampede July 8.
