Heliopolis is downtown Calgary’s premier Egyptian Mediterranean-inspired cocktail lounge and live music venue.
Located in the historic Grain Exchange building, we offer an intimate nightlife experience centered around meticulously crafted cocktails and premium hospitality.
Our space is designed to balance relaxed comfort with elevated sophistication, featuring curated live music that sets the perfect tone for the evening.
Whether you are seeking a refined date-night destination, a memorable night out with friends, or a fully catered corporate private event, Heliopolis provides an unmatched atmosphere in the core of the city.
Join us Tuesday through Saturday.
Enjoy a proper drink, hear the music, and actually have a conversation. Whether you’re here for a quiet drink after work or a busy Saturday night, we focus on great hospitality and a vibe that’s easy to enjoy.
A Place to Unwind
Our menu features Egyptian and Mediterranean-inspired hors d’ouvre, signature cocktails, and a wine list chosen to suit the room.
Whether for a public evening or a private booking, food and drink at Heliopolis are meant to complement the experience, not compete with it.
