The Backstreet Boys are coming to town August 8, and where else would the official afterparty be held but at Calgary’s hottest nightclub, The Roadhouse! We’re working with Marquis Entertainment to ensure a great afterparty experience for you and your friends. We’ll have drink specials, hot DJ spins, and more drink specials. Learn more in our Events section.

Tickets are only $15.00 which you can pickup by calling our event hotline, or by asking us about tickets the next time you’re in — which better be this weekend!

RoadhouseNation.com members are in the know on the best way to get the full Stampede experience from the hottest Stampede nightclub in town. Nation members are already ahead of the game because this particular contest is only available to members of RoadhouseNation.com.

Now to the point, we’ve got 3 great prize packages up for grabs, each of which will give you a serious taste of what Stampede nightlife is all about. So what are the prizes:

1. First prize is a Stampede party for you and your closest 9 friends. We’ll get your group in for free, provide you with reserved seating, chuck in some drinks and definitely feed everyone. You can book your party pretty much anytime during Stampede.
2. Second prize is a Roadhouse Stampede VIP Pass which is good for you+3. This little bad-boy is the hottest ticket in town because this will get you to the front of the line anytime during Stampede.
3. We like 2nd prize so much, we’ve made 3rd prize another Roadhouse Stampede VIP Pass, except this one is only good for you and 1 friend.

Now that we’re clear on the great prizes, trust me when I say it’s easy to win. Check out the Stampede Party Contest rules for full details.

To get you in the mood we’ve got something special for ya.’ We’re giving away multiple Stampede prize packages that will let you soak in the entire Stampede experience, Roadhouse-style! It’s our RoadhouseNation.com Stampede Party Contest.

Happy Stampede Hunting!!

I’m busy here plugging away trying to get Stampede hiring and schedules done. I’m still getting used to the differences, both subtle and not so subtle, between being a doorman and a manager. Eight years ago when I started out as a doorman at The Palace on Stephen Ave. I had no idea I’d be managing The Roadhouse today. Everything from hiring, scheduling, the random problems that come up during the night, the day meetings, it’s all still new. But it’s a hell of a lot of fun.

Don’t get me wrong, there are some days when being a doorman at The Back Alley or the short-lived Spin Nightclub were way easier. But they weren’t nearly as fun or rewarding. The staff we have here at The Roadhouse are unbelievable. From little Scotty to Ry Bakes and Bradsaw. Everybody here is super rad. And I don’t think I’ve ever been so comfortable getting kissed sensually on the neck by another man as I am now (the Ultimate Fighter’s Nick Ring). It’s still pretty damn weird though. Ha ha ha!

I can hear Aidan (Shady A) working on booking limos for ladies night behind me right now. He’s calling the lucky girls who had their name drawn for a complimentary limo package on us for ladies night.

Jordan and Joel are hard at work getting our annual golf tournament ready to go for this Monday. I can’t golf this year but last year’s was fun as hell. Myself, Brad Cardinal, Cregg from Pita Pit on 17th Ave, and Matty Long were the best damn ragtag team of golfers that ever hit Silver Wing. I shotgunned my first ever beer that day, Brad didn’t have any clubs so he used the complimentary left handed wedge for every shot (even though he’s right handed), and watching Matty chase the golf part with his pants around his ankles will forever be a memory. Maybe not a good one, but a memory.

Enough of my rambling on and on.  Talk to you crazy fukkers later!

JR OUT!!!!!!

By far the highlight of the night though was seeing all the sexy ladies that showed up and dressed the part for the night. From our perspective in the DJ booth there is nothing better than seeing the crowd involved in our weekly themes and going off to the music we play (by the way, bravo for going off to Sinatra…that definitely made my night). While each and every night in the booth is a blast, long weekend Sundays are by far my favorite nights because I know that everyone is down to have a gong show party night, and that’s just the way we like it. Only one small piece of advice to give out after the night was over though…Jordan Wanner…keep your shirt on! Rave on Calgary!

Honestly though, when it comes to a group event out on the town, no one does it better than The Roadhouse. Whether it’s your last night of freedom before you tie the knot, a birthday bash, or maybe you just want to get you and your group down to the hottest nightclub around without dealing with a lineup. The Roadhouse will throw you a party you won’t soon forget!

Here’s a glimpse at some of the special events you might want to book with us. Oh ya, did we mention you can book online:

Attention Ladies » You Need a Night Out

Stop messin’ around and get it done right. Book a limo for you and your gal-pals and get down here on one of our famous Thursday nights! We’ve never had a ladies night that didn’t impress, that’s why our Thursday nights are so famous.

Packages » Whatever You Need

Have a birthday, bachelor, or bachelorette party on the horizon? Well, no one does it like The Roadhouse. We’ll make your special event a night to remember and wrap it all up in a tightly bundled package that makes it hassle free.

Bottle Service » That’s Right, We Said Bottle Service

The Roadhouse is now pleased to offer bottle service in our exclusive Grand Marnier Red Room. Anything you want, well almost anything, after all, this isn’t Vegas. Orange Smirnoff? Crown Royal? Dom Perignon? Whatever your flavour, we’re sure to have it on our menu. Space can be limited so try to book your table in advance, or you can definitely check it out on your next visit (which is probably tonight, right).

Guest Lists » Stop Waiting In Line

Kick-off your night the right way by hopping on our guest list and avoid the hassles. We are, after all, the busiest nightclub in Calgary, so I’m afraid we get a lineups from time to time.

Get your party on a guest list and nobody waits in line, plus we’ll even take care of some of the cover charges. Guestlists are good until 10:00pm so no rush either, but the sooner the better, we’re just sayin’ is all.

When: Thursday, May 20, 2010

It’s the best show in town and nothing can beat what The Roadhouse is doing on Thursday nights, and now we’re rampin’ it up with the Smirnoff House Party!

Every week The Roadhouse is looking for ways to make our hot Thursday nights even hotter. On May 20, we’re hittin’ one out of the park. We’ve partnered with Smirnoff to bring you the Smirnoff House Party experience, the best experience this side of a Friday night!

It’s not just another night with beautiful people, amazing drink specials, and an electric vibe. On this night we’re featuring Smirnoff, all night long. Oh ya, guess what? Music will be spun by two of the hottest DJ’s Calgary has ever seen » DJ Skribble and DJ Crunch.

So no more “what do you want to do tonight” questions! Go to ticketbreak.com/smornoff and purchase your ticket… NOW!! They’re only $15.00 and believe me, it’ll be worth it.

What?! That’s right. Tax accountants party too and The Roadhouse is where they go.

We know that the end of April represents the official close to tax season. We also know that for the weeks leading up to the end of April, accountants all over the city of Calgary are workin’ it to the knuckles. We’ll guess what? We want to cut all you accountants out there a break, and give you a night out at The Roadhouse to remember.

On Friday, April 30, we’re hosting a private party for all of Calgary’s accountants — whether you need the break or not. Finish up the tax season by treating yourself, your colleagues, your friends, your friends of your colleagues (get the picture) to a night out at Calgary’s hottest nightclub.

We’ll get you in with no line, no cover until 8:00pm. Once you’re in we know you’ll have a blast.

On top of the incredible drinks specials and non-stop beats coming from the DJ booth, this is also the scene for Calgary’s #1 Ladies Night party for the past 7 years.

Ladies you have to admit that there isn’t anything better than hopping in a free limo and heading out for a night on the town with your best gal pals to watch some guys take their clothes off for you! That is of course after some of Calgary’s hottest bartenders have warmed you up with a few bevies, and you have torn it up on our dance floor with some of our interactive games and dancing lessons.

Of course we can never forget about the guys on this night though! The $8.25 triples are there for you as well so you can get that little bit of liquid courage you are gonna need for when the curtain comes down and all the Sexy Ladies of The Roadhouse are wound up and ready to party!

So whether you are just looking to hang out with your friends and have a few bevy’s or you are looking to get wild and find yourself a little somethin’ somethin’… Threesome Thursday at The Roadhouse is the only place you want to be on a Thursday Night in Calgary!
