A few tips before you go
- Arrive early. The most popular breakfasts, especially Family Day and Kids' Day at Stampede Park, draw big lineups. Getting there within the first half hour usually means shorter waits and no risk of the griddles shutting down early.
- Bring cash for parking at community association events, and check the host's social media the morning of in case of weather changes. And yes, wear the hat. It's Stampede.
