The Calgary Stampede is turning up the volume this summer. Global hip-hop icon A$AP Rocky is bringing his electrifying live show to the Scotiabank Saddledome on Saturday, July 4, 2026, as part of the Stampede Concert Series presented by Uber Eats.
A true tastemaker in music, fashion and culture, A$AP Rocky has spent more than a decade shaping the sound and style of modern hip-hop. Since breaking out in 2011, the Harlem-born artist has racked up over 25.7 billion global streams and 8.8 billion YouTube views, earning his status as one of the most influential artists of his generation.
“A$AP Rocky is more than an artist — he’s a cultural force,” said Meghan Kivisto, Vice-President, Sales, Marketing and Programming at the Calgary Stampede. “Bringing an artist of his calibre to the Stampede reflects our commitment to showcasing world-class talent and creating unforgettable moments for our audience.”
Rocky’s catalogue includes two Billboard 200 No. 1 albums, LONG.LIVE.A$AP and AT.LONG.LAST.A$AP, along with his experimental third studio album TESTING, which has surpassed one billion streams worldwide. Fans can expect a high-energy set packed with favourites like “Praise the Lord (Da Shine),” “Babushka Boi,” “RIOT (Rowdy Pipe’n),” and newer releases including “Highjack” and “Ruby Rosary” featuring J. Cole.
Beyond music, Rocky continues to push creative boundaries across fashion and film. In 2025, he co-chaired the Met Gala themed Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, starred in two A24 films, and remains Creative Director for Ray-Ban and PUMA through his creative agency, AWGE.
