Unless you’re living under a rock, you’ve probably heard that pop superstar Taylor Swift is releasing a new album on April 19.
It seems as though many of Calgary’s restaurants and bars are officially in their Swiftie era, with tons of events on the horizon to celebrate the drop of The Tortured Poets Department.
While Modern Steak’s two Taylor Swift-themed dinners sold out, the good news is there is still plenty of Swiftie action taking place in YYC.
If you’re in need of some good food, drinks and probably a cry, too, here are some of the biggest Taylor Swift-themed food and drink events taking place in Calgary.
