Turf to Tarmac, a HALO Charity GALA

Five years ago, Turf to Tarmac set out to redefine what a charity gala could be. What began as a bold idea has grown into one of southern Alberta's most anticipated fundraising events, bringing together community leaders, local businesses, supporters, and friends of HALO Air Ambulance for an unforgettable evening of connection, celebration, and impact.

On September 26, 2026, the HALO Hangar will once again be transformed into a spectacular event venue for the 5th Annual Turf to Tarmac Gala, presented in support of HALO Air Ambulance's mission to provide critical emergency medical transport and care across southern Alberta.

This milestone celebration would not be possible without the incredible support of our sponsors. We are proud to welcome back Hargrave Ranching Co. as our Presenting Sponsor, RedCork Ltd. as our Artist Sponsor, and Sunrise Ranching Co. as our Platinum Sponsor, whose commitment continues to help make this signature event a remarkable experience while supporting HALO's life-saving mission.

As guests take their seats, we'll look back on the journey with a brand-new opening video celebrating the first four years of Turf to Tarmac before unveiling another unforgettable evening of remarkable food, inspiring stories, and incredible entertainment.

Combining the sophistication of a formal gala with the industrial charm of an active aviation hangar, Turf to Tarmac offers an atmosphere unlike any other event in the region. It's an experience designed to be savoured, where every course, every conversation, every story, and every performance contributes to an unforgettable evening.

Most importantly, every ticket purchased helps ensure HALO Air Ambulance remains ready to respond when every minute matters.

Whether you're returning for another year or joining us for the first time, we invite you to be part of this special 5th Anniversary celebration and experience why Turf to Tarmac has become one of the region's signature events.
