The BMO Centre at Stampede Park is redefining what meeting and event professionals can expect from a venue. Following its recent expansion, it is now the largest convention facility in Western Canada, offering more than 500,000 square feet of saleable space, including 350,000 square feet of contiguous exhibition space designed to host everything from international conventions and trade shows to corporate conferences and gala events. Signature spaces include the 50,000-square-foot, column-free Champions Ballroom with sweeping views of downtown Calgary and the Rocky Mountains, an additional 20,000-square-foot ballroom, and dozens of flexible meeting rooms that allow planners to create events of every scale with ease and intention.

At the heart of the venue is The Exchange, a vibrant gathering space anchored by Canada’s largest indoor fireplace, designed to bring people together between sessions. The BMO Centre also extends beyond its walls with unique outdoor event spaces, including a covered patio and a 40,000-square-foot outdoor plaza, offering fresh-air options for receptions, activations, and memorable guest experiences.

What sets the BMO Centre apart is its connection to the Calgary Stampede and the spirit of Western hospitality that comes with it. Guests experience more than just a venue—they are welcomed into a place shaped by more than a century of community, celebration, and world-class gatherings. Combined with elevated culinary experiences inspired by Alberta’s agricultural roots, a dedicated Client, Exhibitor, and Guest Concierge team, and a strong commitment to sustainability, the BMO Centre delivers seamless events that leave a lasting impression.
