An Exceptional Place To Meet
Red Deer’s central location is convenient for organizations whose membership is spread out across the province, but that is just one of several factors that make the region a good destination for tradeshows, meetings and conventions. Good meeting facilities at competitive rates, an abundant supply of reasonably priced accommodations and friendly western hospitality have been vital to the city’s success as a host destination.
