How attendees reach it
Allow half an hour each way to Calgary International Airport (YYC), 9 km (5.6 mi) away, and rather more if your first session starts during the morning peak.
At 4.3 km (2.7 mi) from the city centre it is a short ride from downtown hotels rather than a walk.
Calgary has 72 venues mapped in total and a population of 1,306,784. The Calgary guide covers the airport, the local time zone and what else is bookable nearby.
Programming it
A fixed-seat house suits a single-track programme: keynotes, panels, award ceremonies and film. It does not suit a trade floor, banqueting or anything that needs the seats to move, so pair it with a nearby function room if you need both.
- award ceremonies
Fixed seating, sightlines and a lighting rig are the hard parts, and they are already here.
- product launches
A single-track room with a real stage is the right shape for a launch.
- multi-track conferences
Works as a plenary house with breakouts booked elsewhere in the city.
