Roses in Bloom: Calgary’s 52nd Annual Rose Show

Join us for a spectacular day celebrating the beauty, fragrance, and diversity of roses at the 52nd Annual Rose Show, hosted by the Calgary Rose Society. This beloved annual event is your opportunity to see and be part of a stunning display of roses grown right here in Calgary and the surrounding areas.

Have roses blooming in your garden? Bring them in.
As Brian Rottenfusser, a Past President and enthusiastic exhibitor, reminds us:

“You cannot win if you do not enter. Bring your best blooms. If they look good to you, they will likely look good to the judges.”
