Calgary – The Calgary Stampede Lotteries is back and ready to make some of the Greatest Winners with $2.2 million to be won in prizes for 2023. Starting tomorrow, April 29, advanced Stampede Lotteries ticket packages are available for purchase online.
The 2023 Lotteries features the stunning $1.26 million Rotary Dream Home, constructed by Homes by Avi. This 2,537 sq. ft. Dream Home includes three bedrooms and three baths and will be located in the southeast Calgary community of Rangeview. The design is inspired by the community’s garden-to-table feel, featuring warm earth tones, plenty of natural light and optimal outdoor space. The winner of this prize package will also take home a cool $125,000 in cash.
This year, the Kinsmen Million Prizes include 164 prizes, valued at nearly $1 million. Amongst these prizes are a 2024 GMC Sierra 2500 Denali Ultimate and a 2023 Crestliner 1850 Fish Hawk boat and trailer; a 2024 GMC Sierra 3500 HD Denali and two KTM 250 XCW dirt bikes; a 2023 GMC Yukon Denali Ultimate and many more.
We are also thrilled to bring back the Stampede Millions 50/50. With every Stampede Millions purchase, the 50/50 pot grows, with a maximum jackpot of up to $3 million. One lucky winner will take away half of the pot following the prize draw on July 19.
Those who purchase their Stampede Lotteries tickets by June 9, 2023 are also entered into the early bird prize draw with a chance to win a 2023 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4X, plus $25,000 cash!
“There is great excitement as we launch the 2023 Calgary Stampede Lotteries, building off the success of 2022,” says Richard Agnew, Chair, Calgary Stampede Lotteries Committee. “Not only do our Lotteries winners win big, but so do our charitable partners. Last year we were able to give back more than $1.3 million to our charitable partners that was reinvested into valuable programs that play an important part in building community.”
Each year, Lotteries proceeds directly contribute to our community through the Calgary Stampede Foundation and our service club partners: Kinsmen Club of Calgary, Rotary Club of Calgary at Stampede Park and the Calgary Marching Show Band Association.
“The Kinsmen Club of Calgary has been involved with Stampede Lotteries for many years, generating hundreds of thousands of dollars that our club reinvests back into the community,” says Darryl Robinson, Chair, Kinsmen Stampede Millions. “With our motto being ‘supporting the communities greatest needs,’ the Calgary Stampede has been a highly valued partner in allowing us to fulfill our promise with every dollar going back to our community.”
“The Rotary Club of Calgary at Stampede Park is honoured to partner with the Calgary Stampede once again to raise much needed funds for local charities,” says Kevin Macleod, Chair, Rotary Club of Calgary at Stampede Park. “Our volunteers have fun selling tickets for 10 days, and have even more fun the rest of the year, giving out all the money we’ve raised.”
“The Calgary Stampede Lotteries gives the Calgary Marching Show Band Association the privilege to provide goosebump moments for the amazingly talented youth of the Calgary Stampede Showband and Calgary Stampede Showriders,” says Harriet Siemens, President, Calgary Marching Show Band Association. “Through our programs, the youth involved receive invaluable and unforgettable travel, performance, training and life experiences.”
