A December evening light spills across Stephen Avenue as your team huddles over a smartphone, watching the app pulse with your next prompt. The Holly Jolly Hunt turns Calgary’s streets, plazas and holiday displays into a one-hour playground—teams photograph themed items, perform short challenges and stack points on a live leaderboard while a remote guide checks in by text.
The hunt threads through Calgary’s downtown character: Victorian façades on Stephen Avenue, modern spans at Peace Bridge, and the Bow River’s cool edge where pop-up light displays and community decorations reflect local holiday culture. Calgary’s civic history—from trading post to railway hub—means public squares and murals are easy pickings for clever clue placement; the city’s winter-light tradition gives extra payoff to evening runs.
Practical details are straightforward. The experience is app-based and lasts roughly 60 minutes with remote guidance; it’s rated easy and suitable for all ages and mobility levels (strollers and service animals permitted). Play anywhere in the city, but downtown provides the densest cluster of holiday décor and transit options. Expect 1–2 miles of walking if you stay central; routes are pavement and urban sidewalks with some curbs.
Plan for cold-weather logistics: a fully charged phone, a portable battery, and warm layers will keep the fun going. Start just after dusk to catch lights, use transit or timed parking near your chosen neighborhood, and allow a little extra time for photos and laughing through the silly tasks. The Holly Jolly Hunt is social, low-impact, and built to leave holiday memories—score points, not footprints.
The standard Holly Jolly Hunt runs about 60 minutes; you can extend your route informally, but the game and leaderboard are structured for roughly an hour.
You’ll use the Holly Jolly Hunt app on your smartphone to receive prompts, submit photos and see scores; a remote guide is available via text during your booking.
Yes—this hunt is family-friendly, stroller accessible, and permits service animals; tasks are designed to be playful rather than physically demanding.
