LILAC FESTIVAL
SUNDAY MAY 30th 2010 10:00AM TO 6:00PM
Sunday, May 30th 2010, marks the date of the 21st annual 4th Street Lilac Festival, and the streets have never been hotter!
In 2009 an estimated 125,000 Calgarians participated in this fabulous one-day festival. They enjoyed the wide array of entertainers that were featured on stages and entertainment zones along 4 th Street in the heart of the Mission district.
In addition, they had an opportunity to shop at over 600 craft, food and entertainment vendors along the 13 blocks of the festival. With something for almost everyone to see and do we had participants dancing in the streets to the smooth sounds and scrumptious tastes. Fourth Street is known for it's diverse cultural restaurants - "you can eat around the world on 4 th " - and those restaurants took to the streets that day selling samples of their fabulous menus.
The Lilac Festival has been voted " Calgary 's best free festival" by FFWD (Calgary 's News & Entertainment Weekly) readers for the last twelve years running.
