The Calgary International Film Festival kicks things off with CIFF Outdoors, a free day at Eau Claire Plaza for the whole city. It starts at 2 PM with a Calgary Surge basketball meet-up, food trucks, and face painting, then rolls into an outdoor screening of Space Jam — a fun, family-friendly way to spend a September afternoon downtown. The plaza stays busy into the evening with more programming for the film-festival crowd.
It's a free event for all, and organizers recommend bringing a chair or blanket since only some seating is provided.
