The Calgary Stampede runs from July 7 to 16, 2023. "Fans can experience all the fun Stampede has to offer before and after the Pitbull concert," the Stampede said. Prices start at $59, plus fees and taxes, but include admission to the Stampede grounds on July 7.

Tickets to the concert go on sale to the general public beginning March 24 at 10 a.m. "He is also a partner in eMerge Americas, the annual tech and innovation summit, and was honoured alongside music legends as well as Nobel Peace Prize and Pulitzer Prize winners at the 2019 International Achievement Summit," the Stampede said in a release. Officials say he also works to improve educational opportunities for those in underprivileged communities in the U.S. The singer rose to fame with his album Planet Pit that featured the hit single Give Me Everything but performing isn't Pitbull's only claim to fame. "Pitbull is renowned worldwide for an incredible show with unparalleled energy and countless hits." "We are thrilled to have Pitbull headline the Saddledome on the first day of Stampede," said Adam Oppenheim, president of Stampede Entertainment Inc., in a statement.

Officials say it's "the perfect concert" to begin the series. Pitbull, whose real name is Armando Christian Pérez, is coming off of a sold-out tour last year and is set to take the stage at the Scotiabank Saddledome on July 7. The first day of the Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth will feature a performance from world-renowned superstar.
