The Calgary Folk Music Festival just announced some pretty fantastic news for festival goers.
There is no longer any requirement that you have to stay within the beer gardens at the Calgary Folk Music Festival.
You can now consume booze anywhere within the grounds!
If you’ve ever been, you might remember that when you wanted to grab an alcoholic drink you would have to leave the stage areas and find a beer garden? This would result in possibly losing your place on the field, or worse, missing out on acts you love.

It also meant maybe just not having the option to drink back a few cold ones while your favourite artist was on stage.
That problem is no more.
