Conferences from coast to coast
Not content with taking a back seat to their big-city, convention-centre siblings, conference centres across the country have been winning a more significant share of the meetings and event spotlight in recent years. Whether it’s a former waterfront cargo shed that has been transformed into a spectacular year-round event venue in Halifax to a stylish and elegant conference centre minutes from downtown Edmonton or an architecturally stunning facility in the heart of downtown Victoria, B.C., the country’s wide variety of conference centres are ready for their moment in the sun.

Allstream is all that
Allstream Centre, one of Canada’s greenest and most energy-efficient conference centres, celebrated its one-year anniversary in October 2010 since sweeping renovations to the interior. Originally constructed in 1929, the new Allstream Centre, which was gutted and redone with a new roof, was built to target LEED Silver certification. The Centre is 160,000 square feet of modern elegance and state-of-the-art technology, offering meeting planners an ideal location for their conferences, conventions and galas.
