カルガリーは、西部アルバータ州の都市で、カナディアンロッキー山麓から東におよそ80kmの高原地帯に位置しています。都市の近郊にあるいくつものマウンテン・リゾートを含め、ウィンタースポーツとエコツーリズムが盛んな場所として知られます。代表的な年間行事にカルガリー・スタンピード、フォーク・ミュージック・フェスティバル、ライラック・フェスティバル、グローバルフェスト、カリブ系の祭りとしては国内で2番目の規模を持つカリフェストなどが開催されます。カルガリー・スタンピードで有名であることから「スタンピード・シティ」（The Stampede City）の愛称を持ちます。アルバータ牛でも知られ、牛の街「カウタウン」（Cowtown）とも呼ばれます
