This thread is for those who are going to the Calgary Comic Entertainment Expo and/or Parade http://www.calgaryexpo.com/

There are several of us going to this as well as the Parade of Wonders (POW) (Canada's 2nd western cosplay parade) http://www.calgaryexpo.com/calgary-expo-events/pow-parade-of-wonders/

1) If your interested in participating in the parade, please let me know and I'll add you to the "Halo" group that is registered in the parade.

2) We are also organizing a get together HALO group at CCEE. Meet and greet. Group Photo's etc... (consensus is Saturday morning and the location is TBA)

Discussion on the details are being done in a "secret FB group" (no so secret now). If you want to be part of this, please PM me on FB and I'll add you to the group. Full (finished) Halo costume is a must.

Details will be posted here, for those who do not have a FB account.

Cheers!

Also for anyone who registered to park downtown please ensure that you registered your vehicle with us before April 10th as only those license plates numbers I give can receive free parking with the proper parking authority.


There is information available here Welcome - CPA And CDA parking app (as a hidden link) Downtown Calgary Parking to find up to date parking stall information.



The Opening ceremonies are at the very end of the Parade and will be held at Olympic Plaza, more information on that can be found at the Calgary Expo Website www.calgaryexpo.com

Damn I would love to go! But the tickets sold so fast :(
If anyone has extras I would pay full admission plus profit
But for now I'll just keep searching the planet

Tickets are still available, just weekend and sat ones ONLINE are sold out. There are still some available to other local stores for purchase, ask a friend to pick you up one.
 
I'll be wearing my Rengar costume for the parade but Saturday I'm suiting up in my spartan! Excited to see you all on Saturday :)
 
I've tracked down some weekend tickets methinks, but if the parade is Friday I'm gonna get a Friday pass too
Have to wait until Thursday or Friday this week to confirm that I am going because I gotta wait for the paycheck to roll in.
Just put a little dash beside my name there Longshot.

I'd like to be in the parade btw,
How would I go about registering in the group?
 
For those who want to be in the Parade, I will need the following info:
1st and last name and your email address.
PM me or leave the info here.

I'll then forward that to the parade organizers.

:)
