This "festival" was not put forth beforehand. This is all part of Plan It Calgary, a city project.
Druh was looking at closing not only the Bridgeland area, but all the way up to Crowchild and perhaps even to Parkland (her words). This was all about letting cyclist etc use more of roadways, NOT for a festival.
Here is Druh Farrell herself....

While it might not be for a "festival" like the other festivals in Calgary, it certainly was proposed to be more than just "letting cyclists have more of the roads."
I don't know why people are hating on Druh for dreaming big. Of course she wants an event to be big. Doesn't mean that it's going to be that in it's first year.
