Calgary, ALTA June 12, 2023 – GlobalFest Groves Pop-Up Event Returns!

When: Sunday 25 June, 1pm to 4pm

Where: Park Space at 7711 Macleod Trail SW (Trico Homes)

What: GlobalFest Groves Pop-Up Event Returns!

After a fantastic debut in 2022, GlobalFest is thrilled to announce the return of the GlobalFest Groves pop-up event with its OneWorld Cultural Partner, Trico Homes, as well as Kingsland Community Association on Sunday, June 25, 2023.

Transpiring at the Trico LivingWell green space nearby, the popularity of these GlobalFest Groves events continue to increase. This promises to be a memorable summer experience, as performances from Azerbaijan, Bangladesh, Brazil, and others will occur. This ethno-cultural display will also include a beer garden for adults and a play area for children.

As part of the “Reaching Out” initiative launched by GlobalFest in 2021, Groves puts an emphasis on the community development work underway and aims to expand it by accumulating new corporate and community partners to create a more inclusive and engaged Calgary.

Long term, GlobalFest is a series of in-community green spaces created collaboratively with OneWorld’s cultural association partners. With a goal of eliminating their environmental footprint, GlobalFest Groves’ intent is to ensure the Groves annually capture more in carbon emissions that are generated by GlobalFest activities.
