The MTFCA National Tour in 2025 will be in the Calgary, Alberta area, specifically in the city of Stettler, Alberta, and will be from July 13 to 18th, 2025. Stettler is about 100 miles Northeast of Calgary.
For anyone interested in the Calgary Stampede, that is the week before the MTFCA tour.

Hope this helps.

If it is in Canada better have a valid passport and be sure your insurance will cover you in Canada. Beautiful country around Alberta. :D

The first MTFCA tour in Canada was held in 1988 in Calgary. The second one was held at Stettler in 1995. This will be a 30 th anniversary rerun of the 95 tour.
Yes you will need a passport. Your car insurance is not a problem.

It could be in Chile and it would still be America. No distinction between North and South America.

I attended the last MTFCA National tour outside of Calgary in Cochrane and it was one of the Best. We really enjoyed the run up to Lake Louise and Banff!

So I have to get my map out. Starting first weekend of June. Auburn swap meet, Santa Clara endurance run, jump to Reno for the Harrah’s tour, 3 days to get to Lincoln for the speedster reunion. Leisurely trip to Calgary for the MTFCA tour, jam to Minnesota for the MTFCI tour, dawdle to Bonneville for speedweek. Leave speedweek a little early to catch the end of Hot August Nights in Reno. Week or two to settle down then or club’s 4 day 35th anniversary tour.

MTFCA is late this year. I thought they were usually in June. I could be wrong.
MTFCI tour is always 3rd week in July.

2025 Speedster Rally is June 11-14 where they hold the covered bridge tour.
Lincoln Speedster Reunion is always 3rd weekend in June. (18-21 in 2025)

Calendar is getting crowded.

With all the focus on deportations, closing of borders with troops, crack downs on imported substances, and close eyes on mules, I would take extra precautions with my paperwork and being prepared to get randomly searched. No excuses.

I thought about doing both the MTFCA and MTFCI tours this year, but getting from Calgary to Owatonna in two days then having the energy for another week of touring, while certainly doable, sounds a bit ambitious.

We also thought about doing both the MTFCA and the MTFCI tours in 2025. The distance between the tours is about 1300 miles, virtually impossible to travel that far and make both tours since they are scheduled back to back. Because of this we are skipping the MTFCA tour and just going to the MTFCI Tour in Owatonna. We had thought of going to the Calgary tour and leaving after Wednesday to travel to Owatonna, but it's just too much. I really feel bad about this and was looking forward to the Calgary tour very much, but that's the way it is. Sorry......
