The Shaw Conference Centre will be called the Edmonton Convention Centre from January 1, 2019.

 

Shaw Communications’ naming rights agreement of the convention centre owned by the City of Edmonton and managed by Edmonton Economic Development will expire on December 31, 2018.

The venue was originally named Edmonton Convention Centre from its opening in 1983 to 1997. A naming rights agreement with Shaw Communications saw the venue named Shaw Conference Centre from 1997 to 2018.

The convention centre celebrated its 35th anniversary in 2018. Earlier this year, it was recognized by the International Association of Venue Managers (IAVM) as one of North Americas five top performing venues—the only Canadian venue to receive this honour since 2012.

The centre is downtown Edmonton’s largest event and convention space and holds approximately 650 events each year.
