The Edmonton Spirit
Edmonton is a city that knows what it takes to make amazing happen. Especially when it comes to your next gathering. We understand that hosting a conference worthy of happy face emojis takes a dream team. Yours and ours. We’ll take your vision and turn it into “unforgettable” for your delegates. How? With creative solutions, a can-do attitude and a citywide network of doers and makers eager to roll up their sleeves and get things done.
Get Inspired
Want to inspire your delegates in the middle of a national park with majestic roaming bison as scenery? We can make it happen. Elk Island National Park is less than an hour’s drive from downtown, where bison wander freely during the day and big city lights never outshine the pristine, starry skies.
Or what about a creative thinking space in an architecturally-iconic art gallery? With an exterior of zinc, glass and steel inspired by Edmonton’s unique northern environment, the Art Gallery of Alberta exudes creativity from the inside and out. With us, the possibilities are endless.
Conference Spaces
Large or small, modern or historic, mind-blowing or mind-expanding, we’ve got the ideal space for your next event. More importantly — our meeting spaces aren’t just rooms; they’re incubators for great ideas and connections that will foster better business for you. From the engaging and educational to the forward-thinking and flexible, delivering successful events is in our DNA.
Ice District
If you haven’t been to Edmonton lately, then you haven’t been to Edmonton. We’ve shaken up our downtown core, and at the centre of it all is the Ice District. Spanning 25 acres of downtown, the Ice District is Canada’s largest mixed-use sports and entertainment district and new home of the Edmonton Oilers.
Shaw Conference Centre
Awarded for excellence and established as a leading convention centre and venue, the Shaw Conference Centre is located at the foot of our vast river valley and in the heart of downtown, and has hosted almost every type of meeting and convention imaginable since opening in 1983.
Edmonton Expo Centre
With 522,000 square feet of possibilities and high-tech features, the Edmonton Expo Centre does big and connected best. Four exhibit halls, a grand ballroom and world-class conference and catering services make their trade show experience unbeatable.
Be Here
Getting here is easier than ever with over 60 non-stop national, US and international direct service flights to and from the continually growing Edmonton International Airport. Keeping the title of Canada’s fastest growing airport for the last 10 years, they’ll make sure your delegates have the air access needed to arrive smoothly.
One thing’s for sure — if you’re looking for a memorable, original, meeting or conference experience, you’ll get it here. Because in Edmonton, you’ll find more than a meeting space. You’ll discover the ally you need to make your next gathering succeed. Let’s talk.
