Fans of the long-running CBC TV series Heartland have a chance to appear on an upcoming episode of the show. 

Hundreds of extras are needed for Fan Extras Day on July 15, organizers said.

Those who want to be on the show and can make it to the Calgary area can register to try and secure a spot. 

Extras will be part of the crowd at a rodeo and are asked to dress accordingly, with cowboy hats and western wear. 

Although the filming location is being kept under wraps, it is within one hour of downtown Calgary, and filming is expected to take five to six hours.

Participants will be chosen in the order that registrations are received, and not everyone who enters will be selected to participate, organizers said.

Registration will be closed once enough applicants are selected, and successful fans will be notified by email on July 9. 

More details and a registration form are available online

Heartland is filming its 18th season and new episodes will air in the fall.
