Mark your calendar for July 10 to 12. Three full days of celebrating the place we are lucky to call home.
A weekend built for everyone
Lacombe Days has always been about community first. It is the kind of event where you bump into half the people you know and meet a few new
ones along the way.
The parade rolls out Saturday morning at 9:00, so grab a spot early and bring a bag for the candy! A big thank you goes to the Lacombe
Rotary Club for keeping the whole thing running smoothly, year after year.
From there, the weekend is packed. Pancake breakfasts to start your morning right. The midway for the kids and the kids at heart. Museum
tours that remind us just how much history this town holds. And the Night Market, which has quickly become a favourite for so many families.
To cap it all off, head out to The Track on 2 for an evening of standardbred races, live music, and a fireworks show lighting up the Lacombe
sky. It is the perfect way to close out the weekend.
Good for our community, good for business
Here at the Chamber, we love Lacombe Days for one more reason. It is wonderful for our local businesses!
Weekends like this bring people downtown. They fill our shops, our restaurants, and our patios. They give visitors a reason to discover what
we already know. Lacombe is a fantastic place to spend time and spend money close to home.
If you own a business here, this is your weekend to shine. Roll out a special. Set up a sidewalk display. Say hello to every new face that
walks through your door. A great Lacombe Days experience turns a first-time visitor into a regular customer.
We will see you there
Lacombe Days is volunteer powered and community driven, and that is exactly what makes it ours. Behind every pancake flipped and every float
decorated are people who care deeply about this town.
So come on out. Bring the family. Bring your neighbours. Let us show everyone why there is no better place to be than right here in July.

See you on the parade route!]]>

We have been dreaming about this one for a long time. Now it is real, and we cannot wait to tell you about it.
So what is it? The Prairie Summit is a one-day conference built for the women driving business across Central Alberta. The founders and the
dreamers. The ones running the show and the ones just getting started. It is a day to learn, to connect, and to walk out feeling like
anything is possible.
Here is what we love most about it. We are bringing a world-class business event right here, to Lacombe. No long drives. No big-city price
tag. Just a powerhouse day of inspiration in our own backyard, built for our own community.
The lineup is coming together beautifully. We will have keynote speakers to make you sit up straight, and we will be announcing those names
very soon. Trust us, they are worth the wait.
Around the keynotes, expect a full day of substance. A real-talk panel with women leading businesses on the front lines across our region.
Breakout sessions on the things that actually move the needle, from building a brand that sounds like you to silencing that little voice of
self-doubt we all know too well. And the connections you make over coffee might just be the best part of the whole day.
None of this happens without the businesses who believe in it. A huge thank you to our early supporters who said yes before the doors were
even open. Burman University. New Country 95.5. Busted Ladies Lingerie. Holm Collective. Supernova Creations. Gift Smack. You are helping
make this day happen, and we are grateful.
Want to be part of it? There are a few ways in.
Come as an attendee. Tickets and registration details are coming soon, so keep an eye on our website and socials.
Come as a sponsor. If you want your business in front of 250 driven women from across Central Alberta, and you want to stand behind
something that matters, let's talk. We have sponsorship spots at a few levels, and we would love to find the right fit for you. Reach out
and we will send the details.
Spread the word. Know a woman in business who needs this day? Tag her. Tell her. Bring her along.
Lacombe has always known how to show up for its own. This is our chance to do it again, in a big way.
More to come, and soon. We will see you on March 2.

Lacombe Days is not just a festival; it's a tradition deeply ingrained in the fabric of the city. Dating back decades, this annual event
brings together people of all ages for a weekend filled with festivities, entertainment, and a whole lot of fun. What sets Lacombe Days
apart is its genuine warmth and inclusivity, making everyone feel like they belong.
One of the highlights of Lacombe Days is the parade that winds its way through the streets, showcasing colorful floats, marching bands, and
community groups proudly displaying their heritage and achievements. It's a sight to behold, drawing spectators from near and far who line
the sidewalks, cheering and waving as the procession passes by.
But Lacombe Days is much more than just a parade. Throughout the weekend, the city plays host to a diverse array of events and activities designed to appeal to people of all interests.

Get ready to rock with Finger Eleven and Prism as they take the stage, delivering an electrifying performance filled with timeless hits and
unforgettable moments. Tickets starting at only $50!
One of the things that makes Lacombe Days truly special is the sense of community that permeates every aspect of the event. It's a time when
neighbors come together to celebrate their shared heritage and create lasting memories. Whether you're catching up with old friends, making
new ones, or simply enjoying the festive atmosphere, there's a palpable sense of camaraderie that fills the air.
But perhaps the most heartwarming aspect of Lacombe Days is its emphasis on giving back to the community. Throughout the weekend, various
fundraising initiatives and charitable events take place, aimed at supporting local causes and organizations. It's a testament to the
generosity and compassion of the people of Lacombe, who understand the importance of looking out for one another.
As the sun sets on another unforgettable Lacombe Days, the sense of togetherness lingers, serving as a reminder of what makes this city so
special. In a world that often feels increasingly disconnected, events like Lacombe Days serve as a beacon of hope, showcasing the power of
community to unite and uplift us all.

Days for yourself. You'll be welcomed with open arms and leave with cherished memories that will last a lifetime.
