This summer we are bringing the heat with a full-day street takeover repping Calgary’s hip hop, graffiti, and street art scenes. In collaboration with Foundation Collective who have curated an incredible Graffiti Jam, we’re throwing a high-energy day party to close it out that’s all about raw talent, good vibes, and community power. Breaking, beats, brews, bold graffiti, and a LOUD rap stage. Pull up, it’s all going down.

Expect:

 🎨 Live Graffiti Writing from some of Canada’s finest
🎧 DJ sets and an open-air sound system powered by CJSW
💥 Breaking battle by Pulse Studios
🎤 A live hip hop showcase & cypher stage presented by WH CALGARY
