Fireworks, music and dance, oh my! Showcasing the wealth of international cultures in Calgary, GlobalFest and OneWorld Festival present four stages brimming with entertainment from a mosaic of cultures. When the summer sun gets too hot, head to the beer gardens or food booths to chow down on a dish from a country you might not have been to—yet. As night rolls in, catch one of the fireworks displays put on by competing teams from China, India, Japan and the Philippines—talk about ending the night with a bang!
