Popular local bar and music venue launches summer concert series in Calgary
COVID-19 continues to present a risk to public health. While restrictions have been lifted across Alberta, it is recommended to continue practicing health and safety measures, including frequent hand-washing, wearing a mask on public transit, at City facilities, and in healthcare settings, and staying home if you are sick.
Attention, country fans: The King Eddy’s live country music concert series is back this summer.
After announcing that their rooftop patio would be open for three seasons of the year, the iconic Calgary venue has returned with even more good news.
The Homegrown Country Series will run every Saturday from July 24 to August 28, showcasing talented local Albertan musicians.
The music series serves as a gathering for the Alberta country music community and spotlights the province’s most sought-after artists. The King Eddy was awarded the title of Country Club of the Year by the Canadian Country Music Association in 2020.
