Default How come there are no fireworks midnight tonight?

Calgary is so lame sometimes. All the events are stupid night club things. It's not even that cold tonight.

If you enjoy fireworks, Airdrie's Festival Of Lights will be sending some up to the sky around 8. Always a great display... and a short drive north.

And it's free. It's in Nose Creek Park, which is just north of Yankee Valley Blvd, on Main Street.

Apparently there are fireworks tonight, but they're at 9pm, to accommodate people with little kids I guess.

No extended transit is even more lame. There were however some "unofficial" fireworks at Century Gardens around 12:30, which attracted quite a few fire trucks several minutes too late.

$$$$ probably? I don't even know how much fireworks cost or how many they fire off.

Olympic Plaza did do the fireworks, but really early at around 9.
