Location
The Shaw Conference Centre is located on Jasper Avenue and 97th street and can be seen in Edmonton's skyline. The Jasper Avenue entrance opens onto the centre's glass atrium, which in turn serves as the entrance to the conference level. Nearby are over 2,000 downtown hotel rooms plus shopping, entertainment venues, dining and North America’s largest park system.
The long outer walls on the centre's assembly and meeting levels offer a view of the North Saskatchewan River valley parks system; a view which stretches from the downtown core to the north campus of the University of Alberta. The centre is linked via pedway to Edmonton's Canada Place, which is the main property for federal government offices in Edmonton. Canada Place is linked, in turn, to many other buildings by way of Edmonton's pedway system, including, the Citadel Theatre, the Westin Hotel, the City Hall, the Sutton Place Hotel, and the Edmonton City Centre mall.
