We all know the need is high in our community in the lead up to the holidays, but local community groups, charities and non-profits need help throughout the year as well.
Check out some of Airdrie’s most picturesque holiday backdrops (from classic festivities to tucked-away winter corners) so you can gather your favourite people, lift the camera, and capture the season exactly as it feels: bright, cozy, and wonderfully fleeting.
As the snow begins to fall and twinkle lights start to glow, Airdrie transforms into a winter wonderland filled with holiday cheer. This season, the city is bursting with festive fun for all ages.
The City of Airdrie is pleased to present six opportunities to dive deeper into thought, explore lived experiences or lighten the mood with a laugh at Inspired Speakers.
The Inspire Centre (Airdrie Public Library) will transform into a hub of conversation, curiosity, and community spirit as ConnectFest returns to the city. Running from 1 pm to 4:30 pm on January 11, the event invites residents to explore the many ways they can give back; one conversation at a time.
On a crisp winter morning in Airdrie, a quiet act of kindness can make all the difference. The Volunteer Airdrie Snow Angels program is a community-powered initiative that ensures vulnerable residents can safely navigate winter’s heaviest snowfalls.
For longtime Airdrie resident Chah Noh Vél, Christmas has always held a shimmer of wonder. Now, she’s bottling that feeling in her newest original release, Psst, It's Christmas Time — a warm, nostalgic holiday song born from poetry, memory and a deep love of storytelling.
Bert Church LIVE Theatre will be the host to a magical Christmas story starring our very own city. Nose Creek Players will perform All Roads Lead to the Station: An Airdrie Christmas Story on December 19 at 7:30 pm and December 20 at 2 and 7:30 pm.
The Airdrie 1st Club will host its seventh annual Sirens Hockey Game on November 29 from 2:30 to 5 pm at Ron Ebbesen Arena. “We encourage residents to participate because it is so much fun! This is a family event, so bring the kids,” says Jo-El Buerlen, president of Airdrie 1st Club.
The annual Halloween Fundraiser event held October 27 at Iron Horse Park was a huge success once again this year.
