Stretch Fest is a carnival of family fun in honour of the recent sudden passing of Beloved Balloon Artist and Calgary Farmers Market(s) regular, Michael Stretch.

Stretch Fest is the result of an outpouring of love and respect for Michael, from the community he was so active in. Balloon twisters, face painters, magicians, and others will be donating their time to entertain at the Markets and bring joy to all that attend.

Join us at the Crossroads Market:

Saturday May 20th 10:00am-4:00pm

Sunday May 21st 12:00pm-4:00pm

Services are provided for free to everyone – and we ask that in return, visitors pay what they can afford into the donation box, in support of Canadian Blood Services Organ and Tissue Donation.

Stretch Fest will also be held on June 3-4 at the Calgary Farmers’ Market South.
June 3 10am-4pm
June 4 12pm-4pm
