The EPCOR CENTRE for the Performing Arts is Calgary's premiere performing arts centre with a mandate to support and contribute to the development of the arts in the community. The EPCOR CENTRE is home to critically acclaimed music series, innovative arts education programs, seven resident arts companies and several major festivals.

RealLiveArts.com is an outreach project of the EPCOR CENTRE for the Performing Arts in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. It is an events calendar and a fully searchable database of information about artists, arts organizations and events.

The RLA is available to anyone who works for the arts in Calgary. You can create a dedicated page about you, your organization and your events or classes, which can be listed in the categories of your choice and in the events calendar. You have control over your own data and can update as often as you like. Also, all short listings are automatically downloaded to FFWD, Calgary's news and entertainment weekly.
