Calgary Events

[troutman]

With the demise of FFWD, how can we learn about Calgary events?

http://www.theculturecycle.com/

Welcome to the Culture Cycle, event listings for Calgary compiled by me, Kari Watson! If there is something that you would like to see included to make your event-searching experience easier and better, or if you know of something that should be included in the listings, please drop me a line and let me know! You can filter your search by category or just take the plunge and skim through them all chronologically. Or, maybe you just look at the pictures. I don’t judge.

I will be putting my picks for your best bets each week up on Thursdays. For now, check out the entire calendar of events.

CJSW is planning something:

CJSW Radio is developing a new concert calendar website that will list all the events happening in the city of Calgary. This listings site will serve the public in finding opportunities to engage with the artistic and cultural events happening in town.

And if you don't already send your listings to the fabulous Kari Watson for her Culture Cycle site, please now do so at kari@theyyscene.ca. She is a partner in this crime.]

Welcome to theYYSCENE, Calgary’s go-to guide to getting out.

It’s a music, arts, lifestyle and listings site conceived as a way to serve the city’s diverse and rich cultural landscape, those who make it the unique community it is and those who choose to experience all that it has to offer.

Contributors include:

• Mike Bell, who has 25 years of experience covering the city’s music scene, working for both daily newspapers as well as being the founding arts and music writer for Fast Forward Weekly
• Kari Watson, a writer and the listings editor at FFWD for its almost 20-year duration, and the creator of the city’s most comprehensive listings website, The Culture Cycle
• Janet Matiisen, former design editor at the Calgary Herald where she worked for almost 25 years, who has also done graphic design for Impact Magazine and other projects around town
• Stephen Hunt, the theatre writer for the Herald for a decade, as well as an author and teacher of playwriting for UBC
• Gwendolyn Richards, who was the food writer at the city’s largest daily for a half decade, is the author of Pucker: A Cookbook for Citrus Lovers and contributes to other local publications
• Jason van Rassel is a a member of the North American Guild of Beer Writers, who has written about Alberta’s thriving craft beer scene for several years
• John Tebbutt, also known as the Video Vulture, has been writing about the weird and wonderful from the film world for the past 20 years

Thanks for pointing this out, there never was any sort of replacement for FFWD after its demise. Looks like they got the band back together.
