Combining design and function

Shaw Centre is an architectural icon in the heart of downtown Ottawa， Canadas capital. With 192，000 square feet of state-of-the-art meeting space， it is ideal for conventions， meeting， trade and consumer shows， galas， receptions， banquets and entertainment.

Within walking distance of national sights， historic landmarks and 6，000 hotel rooms， the Shaw Centre is an easy 20-minute commute from the Ottawa Macdonald-Cartier International Airport. Ottawas character， national treasures， natural beauty， exciting night life and relaxed urban vibe will be sure to attract organizers and and appeal to delegates.

Shaw Centres modern， minimalist design combines form， function and flexibility， from our expansive， pillar-free Canada Hall to our more modest meeting rooms.

The centre is fully accessible with leading-edge technology infrastructure and environmentally sustainable features and practices recognized industry-wide. Since it opened its doors in April 2011， Shaw Centre has been big news for Canadian and international meeting planners， as well as the respective economies of Ottawa， Ontario and Canada. The Centre has been able to provide space for groups formerly unable to meet in Ottawa， and has allowed them to take full advantage of all that Canadas Meeting Place and Canadas Capital have to offer.
