A full 1,300 attendees have already committed to the April 21 date, so a sizable crowd can be expected to speak Wilson’s trademark phrase word.

Many Facebook users have expressed their delight at the prospect of coming together for such a momentous occasion.

“WOW,” wrote Cal Merrony Gerla in a post on March 7.

“Wooooooow,” wrote Dan Neveu on March 10.

Another Facebook user, Dusty Roads, had this insight on March 8: “Wow.”

The event will take place at the Calgary Tower on Saturday, April 21, and will run from 3:11 to 4:20 pm.

The description of the event states that the gathering will be in celebration of both 4/20 and Earth day, which fall on April 20 and April 22, respectively.
