Four Must-Know Tips for Parking at Lilac Festival


This year try to bike or walk to the Lilac Festival with the help of Calgary’s Pathway and Bike Map!

The Calgary pathways & bikeways map identifies pathways, bikeways and even trails within Calgary. The map is available in paper, electronic, interactive and now a mobile app.

For those of you taking Calgary transit, here are some helpful hints!

Coming from the far north or south hop on the C-Train, and depending on where you would like to start the festival:

Elbow/Stampede will put you within walking distance of Elbow and 4th Street . Victoria Park/Stampede will put you within walking distance of 17th and 4th Street.

Bus suggestions for traveling near 4th Street are:

Route #7 – runs south down 17th Ave stopping near 4th Street, also is equipped with handicap access.

Route #6/106 – runs the Killarney area to 4th Street.

Route # 2 – runs north down 17th Ave and stops near 4th Street.

Route # 3 – runs Elbow drive to 5th Street (normally 4th).

Please ensure to check the day of the festival for Sunday bus route times!
