Dust off your boots and saddle up for the most memorable evening of the World Geothermal Congress 2026!
The Calgary Western Night replaces the traditional conference dinner with something far more fitting for Canada: an unforgettable celebration inspired by Calgary’s legendary Western heritage. On this special evening, the global geothermal community will leave the conference halls and come together for a relaxed, high-energy night of networking, entertainment, and true Alberta hospitality.
Hosted at the iconic Nutrien Western Event Centre, this unique evening brings the spirit of the famous Calgary Stampede to WGC2026. Delegates will be transported from the TELUS Convention Centre and welcomed into a vibrant Western atmosphere where cowboy hats, live music, and a lively crowd set the tone for the night.
Throughout the evening you can expect:
-
Live country music and Western entertainment
-
Stampede-style food stations and complimentary drinks
-
Mechanical bull riding for the brave
-
Rodeo-style performances and cultural acts
-
A themed photo booth to capture your inner cowboy or cowgirl
-
Plenty of space to meet friends and colleagues from around the world
More than just a dinner, Calgary Western Night is the social highlight of WGC2026: the moment when the global geothermal community celebrates together in a relaxed and uniquely Canadian setting.
Whether you come for the music, the food, the networking, or simply the experience, this is one evening you won’t want to miss.
Capacity is limited – advance booking strongly recommended.
