About Calgary
Calgary is the largest city in the Canadian province of Alberta and the headquarters of much of Canada's oil and gas industry. It is also a gateway to the Rocky Mountains, with Banff National Park a short drive away, and it hosts the Calgary Stampede, one of the world's best-known rodeo and western festivals, every July.
Calgary keeps the same time as the rest of Alberta, on Alberta Time (UTC-6) all year. Alberta stopped changing its clocks on 1 November 2026: it stayed on its summer time instead of falling back to Mountain Standard Time, so Calgary is now an hour ahead of Denver and Phoenix in winter and level with Chicago and Winnipeg. For calls with the rest of Canada, mid-morning in Calgary usually catches both Toronto and Vancouver within office hours.
