The event is held on July 9, 2022 at Heritage Park (1900 Heritage Drive SW, Calgary, Alberta).
Check-in begins at 4:30pm and doors open at 5:00pm. Check-in closes at 5:45pm sharp. We encourage you to arrive well before the program begins to mix and mingle with fellow Conservatives.
In past years, this event has sold out quickly and the seated dinner format has limited the number of tickets available for sale. This year, there will not be a seated buffet dinner as past attendees are used to. Instead, guests will receive a full meal “reception-style”, with food stations outside the main tent. Outdoor and indoor tables will be available for guests to enjoy their meal at as they mix and mingle with other Conservatives, and chairs and cocktail tables will be available around the venue for guests to use. There will not be any assigned seating or reserved tables. As a result, we will be able to accommodate more Conservatives this year than ever before!
