Lanre Ajayi at Olympic Plaza

Canada Day

Diella Ocran joins Lanre Ajayi to explore this national holiday

Canada Day has come and gone but Lanre Ajayi has some beautiful moments to share with you.

Joined by special guest presenter Diella Ocran, the pair hit up a number of celebrations around the city, speaking to visitors, watching the performances, and getting a taste of Canada’s 152nd birthday.

Bursting with music, dance, art, and culture, The City of Calgary partnered with dozens of local cultural organizations to program a day filled with free, family-friendly events on July 1. Ocran and Ajayi swung by the Central Library, Chinatown, the East Village, and Prince’s Island to explore.

So, sit back, relax, and enjoy this special Canada Day edition of My City Speaks To Me.
