Thousands of Cochranites packed Mitford Park to take in the biggest party of the year. 

The strong winds didn't stop the crowd from taking in the non-stop entertainment from the Taiko Drummers to Snap Dance Studios dancers to pony rides, to a petting zoo.

Crowds of people could be seen dancing to the music played by Hippocratic Oath, Chris LeBlanc, Peter & The Wolves, Dangerous Goods, and headliner, Calgary’s own Marcus Trummer Band.

The evening ended off on a high note, with an incredible fireworks performance for all of Cochrane to enjoy.
