Running from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., the event will feature a full day of football, with NFL games being shown throughout the day as fans gather to celebrate the return of the season.
But the football on the screens won’t be the only attraction.

Fans heading to Brix + Barrel will also have plenty to do between games, with tailgate games, interactive football skill challenges, and photo opportunities planned throughout the event.
The watch party will feature NFL RedZone and select games throughout the day, with the Indianapolis Colts’ matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs scheduled for primetime.
The event marks the first NFL Canada party in Calgary as the league continues to build its presence among Canadian football fans.
And unlike many major sports events, fans won’t have to break out their wallets to attend.
The NFL Canada Watch Party is completely free, although fans are encouraged to secure tickets in advance.
For Calgary football fans, it’s a chance to spend an entire Sunday surrounded by the sport while getting a rare opportunity to see the Lombardi Trophy in person.
