Ramjhat Garba 2026 at Calgary City Hall
Indians In Calgary lists Ramjhat Garba Saturday, October 17, 2026, 5:00 to 11:00 p.m. at City Hall, 800 Macleod Trail SE. The body still says October 17, 2025, and the waiver still says 2025. Use the 2026 header.
Indians In Calgary is listing Ramjhat Garba 2026 for Saturday, October 17, from 5:00 to 11:00 p.m. at Calgary City Hall, 800 Macleod Trail SE. That is the Eventbrite header, the ticket title, and the schema start/end times (5 p.m. to 11 p.m. Mountain).
The body still says 17th October 2025. The waiver title still says Ramjhat Garba 2025 in places. Treat those lines as leftover copy. The 2026 slug, the Saturday 5-to-11 clock, and the live header are the card to trust. Refresh the page the week of if they reprint the year in the body.
The listing promises a live band and traditional beats, food stalls, and a public garba under one roof downtown. The promo art also flags best-dress and best-garba prizes. Dress in traditional attire if you have it. Ticket tiers sit behind Eventbrite's checkout, and the public schema does not print a clean from-price, so check the live page before you go. Refund policy is posted as no refunds.
Indians In Calgary frames itself as a community organizer dating to 2013. Ramjhat is their downtown Navratri product: civic address, open ticket path, and a night that sits earlier than their late-October Diwali hall date.
City Hall / Olympic Plaza is the CTrain move. The venue line is downtown Calgary City Hall, not a northeast banquet hall. That geography matters if you are comparing this night with later October dates in other corridors.
This is the same organizer as Diwali Fest at NICC on October 30, a northeast community Diwali hall night. GMofC Navratri is October 30–31 at BMO Centre. Ramjhat is the earlier downtown Navratri Saturday: City Hall energy two weeks before the BMO and NICC stack.
RED FM Diwali Dhamaka Calgary sits later in the Festival of Lights stretch. Keep Ramjhat in the garba lane and those dates in the Diwali / concert lane so you do not buy the wrong mood.
Who this is for: families who want a downtown City Hall garba and already follow Indians In Calgary. Skip it if you need a clean page with every year corrected in the body. Wait for a reprint, or go in knowing the header wins.
Comfortable shoes still win once the floor opens. Arrive nearer to 5 if you want calmer entry and food before the room peaks. Screenshot the Macleod Trail address so rideshares do not drop you at the wrong civic building.
Our take: lock October 17, 2026, 5 to 11 p.m., in your calendar from the header. Do not print 2025 in any when-block you share. Confirm the ticket price on the live Eventbrite before you buy.
When: October 17, 2026 (5–11 p.m.; body leftover still says 2025)
Where: Calgary City Hall, 800 Macleod Trail SE, Calgary, AB T2G 5E6
