Neighbour Day

Neighbour Day — June 21, 2025

Neighbour Day is Calgary’s celebration of community spirit. Held each year on the third Saturday in June, Neighbour Day is a step toward creating welcoming and inclusive communities where neighbours connect and belong every day of the year.

Good things happen when you get to know your neighbours. They can add a friendly visit to your day, and you can lend a helping hand when needed. Social connection with neighbours reduces loneliness and isolation and builds strong communities where people feel they belong.

Join with your neighbours on June 21, 2025 and get involved in Neighbour Day!

We had our first neighbour day party last year and it was a huge success! Everyone was thrilled! We recently had a new family move to the street and they said what sold them was when their realtor told them about our great neighbour day party!
