Discover the Heart of the Beltline

About this experience

The original BUMP Festival Tour with brand new murals! Discover our home grown talent alongside global influences from diasporic Canadian artists. Learn about the most iconic murals packed into the heart of Calgary’s Beltline. Immerse yourself in Calgary’s Design District, and see how the former Electric Avenue has transformed from a raucous party strip to a cultural hub filled with shops, restaurants, and art! Experience history and imagine the future with a blend of heritage and contemporary architecture. Feel the electricity of a city with a vibrant public art movement. View murals that range from monumental portraits of powerful women such as Angela Gladue and Violet King; to a visual retelling of beloved folktales; to towering animals ready to pounce from 50 foot tall walls. After 9 years of mural installations, this tour will introduce you to the best way to explore street art in Calgary; and will fill you in on behind the scenes stories of how public art is made. Join us for an urban adventure, and see the city through the eyes of the artists reimagining the city.
