‘Grand welcome’: Shania Twain kicks off Calgary Stampede as parade marshal
July 4, 2025
Shania Twain, country music’s top-selling female artist, led the Calgary Stampede's signature opening day parade on Friday.
Country music superstar Shania Twain, in a white hat and white fringed jacket, sat on top of a white horse that clip clopped to cheers through the downtown Friday as she kicked off the Calgary Stampede and its signature parade.
“It’s exhilarating. I just have to stay calm for my horse. I don’t want him to read my energy. I’m sure I’ll just have a smile stuck to my face the whole time,” Twain told reporters after she was given her official marshal badge to lead the parade.
