Gasoline Alley at Heritage Park
Gasoline Alley Museum at Heritage Park things to do in Calgary

Gasoline Alley Museum features Canada’s largest collection of restored gas pumps, and one of the largest collections of restored trucks, on display in the lower showroom. Discover the tales of Alberta’s most notorious whiskey runner, the first car in Alberta, the dirty thirties, and much more. It’s not just for car buffs – it is an exciting pit stop for guests of all ages.

Local businessman Ron Carey generously donated the items to Heritage Park so that they could be put on display for public enjoyment while being properly maintained. The artifacts displayed at the museum date from the turn of the 20th century to the 1950s and include vintage vehicles, unique gasoline pumps, and many products and signage from a host of petroleum companies. Most of the items on display in Gasoline Alley Museum were painstakingly restored by Mr. Carey and his staff.
