Here’s the scoop: A HUGE ice cream festival is coming to Calgary

Summer 2024 is coming in hot and so is one of the coolest events of the season.

In a few short weeks, YYC Ice Cream Fest will return to Calgary and feature some of the tasties creations in the city – so you won’t want to miss it!

Whether you love soft serve or unique combinations, this frosty festival is sure to be appreciated by the entire family and those supported by Meals on Wheels.

During this event, $1 – $3 from every item sold will help provide nutritious meals to people in need, meaning you can feel extra good about your sweet little treat.

What’s more, you’ll be encouraged to check out shops, restaurants, and bars – giving local businesses some love, but take note of your favourites!

After all is munched and melted, ice cream lovers will be asked to award their faves with one of three titles: YYC’s Best Scoop overall, the best non-dairy scoop, and ‘Golden Scoop.’

It’s going to be a fantastic time.

Get ready, get set, Calgary. It all goes down between July 19th and August 5th, 2024.
