19 mesmerizing photos of Calgary Stampede fireworks (PHOTOS)

To cap off each night at the Calgary Stampede, the sky is lit up with an array of colours accompanied by music of the TransAlta Grandstand Show. This year we experienced a lot of rain but that didn’t stop the show from going on.

If you weren’t able to see the show up close and personal, or watch from afar we’d compiled a photo and video roundup for you.

Even though it was raining, the fireworks were spectacular at the end of the day 💙🌍💙 #calgarystampede #2016 #grandstandshow #greatestoutdoorshowonearth #firewoeks #beautiful #nightsky #lovinglife #feelinggood #happydays #rainydays #happygirl

We found a quiet bridge to watch this evenings Stampede fireworks. With hardly a person around, and the sound of the river water rushing below, definitely coming back to this spot. #yyc #calgarystampede2016 #calgarystampede #fireworks #calgary #stampedefireworks
