Things to do in Alberta
From hip clubs to laid-back pubs, you'll find something for all tastes in Calgary's downtown Beltline area, which is the heart of the city's nightlife scene. 17 Avenue is the Beltline's busiest district, home to the popular Melrose Café and Bar, the welcoming Ship and Anchor Pub and the intimate Ming Lounge. Visitors simply looking to enjoy a cold brew will have a large selection to choose from at Wildwood Brewing Company, Cat'n'Fiddle and the Barley Mill Eatery and Pub, while those looking to dance the night away will love Ranchman's and Cowboy's Dance Hall. Calgary also offers its fair share of live music venues, coffeehouses and pool halls, for a more relaxing night on the town. With its hoppin' nightlife scene, it's easy to see why Calgary gets its second wind after dark.
