AGLC regularly considers early service hours for major events such as international sports or the Calgary Stampede.

The 2022 FIFA World Cup starts soon, and with the tournament being hosted in Qatar, several games begin in the early morning hours.
As a result, Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis Commission (AGLC) is allowing Alberta bars to open early and serve liquor to patrons.
Here are when bars can open for liquor service:
- From Nov. 21 to Nov. 28, the start time is 5:30 a.m.
- From Nov. 29 to Dec. 10, the start time is 7:30 a.m.
So far, no bars in Fort Saskatchewan or Sherwood Park said they're participating, but you can find a few bars in Edmonton that are moving forward with the earlier service.
Team Canada's first game is Nov. 23 when they take on the second-place team in the world rankings, Belgium.
