13 Free Things To Do In Calgary This November

Once the clock strikes midnight and November is finally here, Calgarians decide it's appropriate to take down their Halloween decorations and immediately replace them with light-up Santa Clauses, Reindeer Lawn Decor and Christmas lights. All the Christmas events begin and well, November might as well be Christmas Eve.
