what an afternoon looks like
music plays, the city shows up, strangers leave as friends.
we set up in calgary parks, bring the djs, and let the sunset set the pace. kids run around, dogs wander through, and by the end of the afternoon people who came alone are dancing next to each other.
no cover, no guest list. just show up with a blanket.

more than a park
four things, one community.
all of it calgary.
Community Events
free. outdoor. all ages.
the free park series, and the heart of everything we do. all summer, always free to walk into. it's the reason the society, the series, and the shows all exist.
The Dos Leches Society
keeping it free. making it last.
we're a registered non-profit now. the society is how we build a real foundation under this community, so we can keep showing up for calgary season after season.
The Spotlight Series
the artists. the city. the sound
spotlight series is where we turn the camera on the people and places behind the music. we are showcasing local artists and the corners of Calgary that make this city worth celebrating.
Dos Leches Presents
nights, fundraisers, the indoor stuff
the park series stays free, always. the indoor nights, the club takeovers, and the winter events are ticketed, and they run under presents, so free stays free and paid is always its own thing. our list hears first.
this isn't a crowd. it’s a community.

don't take our word for it.

So absolutely grateful to be able to experience such a wonderful atmosphere in our beautiful YYC.”
