Hey, WildCherry - Welcome to ePlaya!!
There is a decent burning man crew in Calgary.

They also have a Facebook page:

In June there is a regional event called FreezerBurn. I have driven the 6ish hours or so to attend the last two years. Lots of fun, good introduction to the burner culture without the extreme environment. (I hail from Saskatoon)
As far as the tickets go, Patience GrassHopper - the process this year is new and untried.
Feel free to dig around on the board. The more searching you appear to have done, the nicer people tend to be about answering questions. It's hard to give general tips, so here's 2 totally random ones: 1) bring a little backpack so you can wander all day with your goggles, canteen, electrolyte drink, sunblock, snack . . . 2) If it didn't come out of your body, don't put it in the potty. (Unless it's 1-ply toilet paper.)
