Calgary’s Best was a 10-day social media campaign we put on, to quiz Calgarians on their favourite places and businesses in the city. We will now be running 10 days of blog posts, based on the results of this quiz, to give you some reviews of some of the best venues in Calgary, from our friends/followers themselves!
