From personal experience, nothing good comes from staying past 12 there....

If i'm there at 12:00 i'd be too piled to realize the music has turned off anyway.

I lived in the Arriva building from 2008-2011, never had an issue during Stampede. Part of the fun of living there was being close to all the action. However the distance from that building to the Cowboys tent was farther than what the Guardian folks will have with that new tent. Give it a day or two and you can probably sleep through it, or get some good white noise going to help.

Capacity for the tent is just over 400 people, according to Calgary Municipal Land Corporation (CMLC).

That would be pretty funny if they were going through all this trouble just to put in a tent that only held 400 people.

That's fewer people than would use the parking lot that's there.

They'd have been better off just holding it in the burnt out house.

They just put out a post saying they're hiring 1000 people. I have to think that 400 was a typo for 4000 haha.

Lol. No music past 12 and 400 capacity. Maybe they’ll throw epic last minute concerts that end at midnight? Big bust for them.

Sounds like the 400 is wrong.

Cowboys just sent out a thing looking to hire 1000 people....

Heres the thing: Its the Stampede and its Cowboys. They've been breaking every rule in the book since their inception and frankly I'm pretty sure the Cops arent going to be overly interested in enforcing a loud noise curfew during Stampede.

"Oh, its 12:30 and its still rocking? Oh yes sir. We'll be right there sir. Priority #1 sir."

Because thats the Stampede's Achilles Heel...late night noise bylaw violations.

Not really, The Stampede and booze has been a world wild success long before a moron like Vickers came along. I hope Vickers/Cowboys nothing but the worst from the bottom of my heart going forward

It looks like the approval was appealed.

Pending Appeal This application was approved on May 27, 2019. The approval has been appealed to the Subdivision and Development Appeal Board

I wonder if it can be heard and decided in time to set it up before Stampede.

I hope the appeal lets them stay open until 4am.

Obviously the appeal didn’t do much because the skeleton of the tent is up now in the lot.

At first I felt bad for residents of the towers.

But after spending a week in Europe during a festival with music blasting out of public speakers (including right outside our bedroom window) until at least 12am and sometimes 4am every night I realize how good our bylaws are.

They can manage.
