Local Candy Stores

There’s something iconic about a candy store. It’s a child’s wonderland, with sugary sweet delights that are often colourful and always delicious. Even adults can’t always resist the lure of the candy store, especially when they find nostalgic sweets that bring back those happy, carefree days of childhood. Sure, you can buy candy at any corner store or supermarket, but check out one of our favourite local Calgary candy stores for something really special.

Date Night (Family Fun Calgary)

February Date Night

COMING SOON FOR 2025 Ah, Valentine’s Day, when the thoughts of parents turn to leaving their kids at home with a babysitter and going out for an evening that doesn’t involve sippy cups and colouring sheets. I don’t know about you, but when I had young kids, I was happy to grab a coffee at Tim Hortons, as long as it was sans kids. It meant I didn’t have to share my doughnut. Let’s plan a February Date Night!

Happy Valentine’s Day, Calgary!
