This is a CEA members only event.

CEA YP group will be hosting a tour of the BMO Centre Expansion, accompanied by CMLC, PCL and RJC representatives. CMLC will speak to the overall project, space and vision and RJC will speak to the technical structural aspects involved in the design of this building. 

The $500M expansion of the BMO Centre will double the centre’s capacity for conferences, meetings and events, making it Western Canada’s largest convention centre at more than one million sq. ft. With more than 100,000 sq. ft. of new exhibition space, 38 new meeting rooms, two new ballrooms totalling 70,000 sq. ft., and a dramatic central gathering space anchored by the largest indoor fireplace in Canada, the BMO Centre will be a state-of-the-art venue that showcases the best in both technology and western hospitality. This month, crews will complete the installation of the 9,000 metric tonnes of steel that form the structure of the 565,000 sq. ft. expansion, which now stands taller than the adjacent GMC Stadium and Saddledome on Stampede Park. 

Everyone will require hard hats, safety glasses, vest, steel toe and gloves.
