If you compare the arenas' upcoming events calendars, virtually every concert that is playing Rogers Place is playing the Saddledome.

The only exceptions are: In April, Bush is playing Rogers Place but they're playing Grey Eagle in Calgary... so, not a venue problem. In July, Katy Perry is playing Edmonton and not Calgary, but Shania Twain is playing Calgary and not Edmonton. Plus, that's the only Saddledome concert announced for Stampede so far. There will likely be at least 2 or 3 more. Tate McCrae is playing Edmonton in August with nothing announced for Calgary, but given this is her home town, I wouldn't be surprised to see her do something here. Maybe at the new "Cowboys" park. In September, Keith Urban is playing Calgary but not Edmonton.

Of all the concerts announced for 2025 so far, Edmonton is getting two shows that Calgary isn't, and Calgary is getting two shows that Edmonton isn't.

I loved her int he 90s because of her looks. Today I learned it was also because she is smart too!
