Pride & Glide was a lot of fun. I got to wear my flag and skate around the ice. It was so much fun to skate with other LGBTQS+ Calgarians and celebrate Pride.

When witches go riding, and black cats are seen, the moon laughs and whispers, ‘tis near Halloween!!
*This is a family fun event for all!
We had so much fun at the Oval. It was too cold to do anything outside so we decided to come with our friends and we had a blast. The vibe, music, and energy was awesome.

Oval after Dark
Join us in the evening for a terrifying immersive experience at the Olympic Oval. The Oval's Balcony access and surrounding catacombs have been transformed into a maze of horror, thrills and chills. Furthermore, you will be skating on the Scariest Ice in the World™ — Beware!
For those of you who survive the haunting, join us on the ice for an evening skate — dimly lit, eery and ominous. A truly chilling experience.
Date: Wed. October 30, 2024
Time: 8:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m.
Admission: $10.00
UCalgary Staff & Faculty Admission: $0 with UCID card
The haunted event is rated 16+ for scenes and sets of horror and blood-curdling terror.
I was terrified. I didn't think it would be scary, but they had all these actors, clowns and a haunted catacomb and I just loved it. Mind you, I won't go alone next time.
