Oxford Stomp is Calgary’s longest-running corporate Stampede-week party: a one-day outdoor music festival on Prince’s Island Park, held every year on the Friday of Stampede week. Three artists play the main stage, gates open at 3 PM rain or shine, and a portion of proceeds supports the Calgary Food Bank.
About
Oxford Stomp is the corporate party of Oxford Properties, co-produced by 51 North Productions, and bills itself as Calgary’s longest running corporate event. The format is simple: one Friday afternoon and evening, three artists on the main stage, and an official after party included with every ticket. VIP tiers add perks like a beef-on-a-bun meal, better stage views, picnic tables, shaded areas and dedicated restrooms.
Past lineups have leaned rock and Canadian: Bryan Adams, John Fogerty, Counting Crows, Our Lady Peace, Tom Cochrane, Sam Roberts Band and The Sheepdogs have all headlined. The 2026 edition features Arkells, Portugal. The Man, Cannons and The Blue Stones. Earlier editions were held at Fort Calgary and Shaw Millennium Park; the festival moved to Prince’s Island Park in 2024. A combo pass bundling Oxford Stomp with Roundup MusicFest is also sold each year.
