BMO Centre

Reviewed By Usia2014 - Calgary, Canada

Although the BMO is a huge facility that can handle a lot of people, it doesn't feel too crowded even at events like the Stampede or wedding fair this Sunday. The displays were very nice and the fashion show was well done in the adjoining hall. BMO Centre is centrally located and if you are staying in a downtown hotel, it's easy to get to. There is plenty of pay parking on site. But taking a cab, uber or c-train are also good options. Often on weekends there are more than one event going on so check the signs carefully when you get inside for the hall that your event is in. The staff at the doors are very friendly and will point you in the right direction. Just ask. The facility is very clean and has plenty of washrooms. A few small concesions sell pizza slices and other fast food and drinks. Wear comfortable clothing and good walking shoes as once inside, there is a lot of walking!! Fun place to see a lot of interesting shows and events from Arts and Crafts to the Wedding Fairs.
