The Mayor’s Environment Expo is a long-running event that educates and engages students on local environmental issues through different workshops and exhibits.
The event is free for schools to attend, and is designed for kids from kindergarten to Grade 12. Schools and homeschool groups have the options to register for in-person or virtual sessions as well.
Through the EcoSchool program, students showcase practical ways to reduce their impact on the environment at school and home, all while getting to connect with environmental leaders.
Students will also get the opportunity to show off a wide range of projects, including biodiversity initiatives, and food systems.
“The Mayor’s Environment Expo gives students the chance to explore environmental issues in practical, hands-on ways and to see how their ideas and actions can make a difference,” says Nicole Newton, Director, Environmental Risk & Resilience at The City of Calgary. “It’s inspiring to see young Calgarians sharing their creativity, leadership and commitment to building a healthier, greener future.”
The Mayor’s Environment Expo runs June 1–4, 2026, with in-person programming on June 2 and 3.
