Review of Calaway Park

On the western fringes of the city just off the Trans-Canada Highway on the way to Banff, Calgary's Calaway Park is the largest outdoor amusement park in western Canada. The park contains everything from roller coasters to the log ride and bumper cars, as well as daily live entertainment, western-themed mini-golf, and a whole host of rides designed specifically for younger kids. It also regularly holds a variety of events to entice the visitor, such as the fantastically named Rad Dad day. Please note: At the beginning and end of the season, the park is open only on the weekend and on public holidays.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
