Neighbour Day originated in 2014 to celebrate the incredible outpouring of support and generosity
neighbours demonstrated after the 2013 floods. Now it has evolved into an annual celebration of what
makes Calgary such a great city – namely our strong and caring communities.

Neighbour Day continues to grow each year. Last year, The City saw a large increase in the amount of
permitted events from the previous year.
This year, The City is once again waiving its fees for block party permits and greenspace bookings for
approved Neighbour Day events that take place on June 16.
The City wants all Calgarians to celebrate and are encouraging as many people as possible to host a local
community event.
