Information provided by founders and funders Chris and Laura Grant:
Calgary Bike Swap is a non-profit bicycle buy and/or sell and/or donate event that is always the first Saturday in May in Calgary.
We safety check bikes brought in for sale between 8 a.m. and 2 p.m. and run the bike details through our proprietary software to verify that the bike has not been flagged as stolen. At 2 p.m. we let people in with stolen bike police reports (where no one has ever found their stolen bike). At 2:30 p.m. we open the floodgates to bike buyers where everyone has their elbows up, children included.
This years event takes place on Saturday, May 3, 2025 at the City Centre Parkade 340-10 Ave SW from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
