Is Edmonton a good place to hold an international conference?

Definitely. Our city is easy to get to and offers great conference venues. And with Edmonton's full roster of year-round cultural and sports activities as well as great shopping destinations and exciting festivals, conference attendees won't run out of things to do in their spare time either.
