New street festival honours RiverWalk

Rock the ’Walk features music and artists

By Heath McCoy, Calgary Herald July 27, 2011

From Kensington’s Sun and Salsa Festival and Marda Loop’s Marda Gras to Inglewood’s Sunfest and the annual bash in Chinatown, Calgary has a tradition of fun-filled street festivals, held all over the city throughout the summer months.

This year, add Rock the ’Walk to that list.

Rather than celebrating a specific neighbourhood, however, this shindig — also planned as an annual event — will be held in honour of RiverWalk, the $10-million makeover of the city’s riverbanks.

RiverWalk is an urban promenade and cycling path that will wind four kilometres along the Bow and Elbow Rivers when finished.
