SNOWBALL 2026 (Limited to 20 teams)

Calgary – Cranbrook – Calgary

February 7-8, 2026 (2-Day Event)

Snowball rally is back for its fifth year! Taking a more relaxed approach to our traditional rallies, Snowball aims to bring car and adventure enthusiasts together for a fun weekend out in the mountains. Join us for an automotive-fueled adventure in the Alberta Rockies that’ll help make winter something to look forward to!

This year we’re heading through the Crowsnest Pass to the beautiful St. Eugene Resort in Cranbrook, B.C., staying the night, and returning to Calgary the next day.

Rally Format:

On each leg of the rally, teams will visit three stops, collecting Snowball themed trading cards along the way. Cards will take the form of previous rally teams and rally shenanigans from events of Snowball’s past. Teams earn points based on their hand each leg.

• Collect one of each and earn 7 points
• Collect three of a kind and earn 5 points
• Collect two of a kind and earn 3 points

There’ll also be bonus points assigned for completing optional activities along the route.

After the morning leg, we’ll stop for lunch and regroup, then we’ll hit three more card draw checkpoints before arriving at the St. Eugene Resort for an evening of fun and shenanigans.

On day 2, we’ll have a later departure so everyone can recover from the night before, and will have one leg back to Calgary, where we’ll finish with a late lunch and awards. The event will conclude mid-afternoon on Sunday, February 8.

Snowball is all about fun and enjoyment. There’s no trivia, clues or questions to answer; just a fun weekend out with some great people and an awesome atmosphere!

Bring your truck, daily driver, winter beater or something fun!

We strongly encourage teams to join in on the fun with costumes, vehicle graphics and gimmicks to enhance the experience of the event. We encourage winter-themed costumes and team themes!

Charitable Contribution: This year’s Snowball Rally is supporting the Luna Child & Youth Advocacy Centre
