What makes it 62% Solo-Friendly: A solo visitor can tour the +15 skywalk, historic gargoyles, and free art windows and use Wi-Fi and charging, yet if no ticketed event is running the building has limited activity and atmosphere.
Why 2-3 hours visit duration is ideal for solo trip: Gives time to walk the +15 Skywalk, view digital art, and use the Wi-Fi without rushing.
Walk the +15 Skywalk:
Follow the indoor pedestrian network above street level.
Tip: Use the online map or CTCC signage to choose a quiet route.
View the “Art While You Wait” digital exhibit:
Watch looping videos by local artists on six screens outside Len Werry building.
Tip: Stop by when waiting for transit or between sessions for free inspiration.
Use free Wi-Fi and charging stations:
Connect to event Wi-Fi and charge devices in Exhibition Hall, Telus Rooms and more.
Tip: Ask your organizer for the network code, then secure your phone in lockable kiosks.
Buy a day-pass to a seminar:
Join a conference session or tour exhibitor booths without a full event ticket.
Tip: Check CTCC’s “Attend Events” calendar online for day-pass pricing and availability.

I attended a two-day conference here and had a great experience. The environment was welcoming, the staff were friendly, and everything ran smoothly. The main hall was spacious, with panels held in separate rooms on another floor. Conveniently located downtown with big parking nearby. Note that the centre has two buildings across the street, North and South.

Wow, for being a little bit of an older building I’m told this looks like brand new. I attended a conference here today. It seems like there’s lots of parking and easy to get through. There’s even a walkway to the other building. I’ll be back for sure.

Beautiful venue with access to Hyatt Downtown and Marriott hotels. Close to multiple attractions.

Attended a 3 day dance competition at the centre. Central location to so many hotels and restaurants. Rooms were large for the event and acoustics very good. Washrooms always clean with very heavy use 7 am- 10 pm daily. Water stations set up throughout the centre and staff always had them full, clean and with lots of cups. Elevators and escalators for those needing them. Outstanding handicap washr...

Great venue. Did the backpack volunteer program with the Calgary Police Foundation. The facility is located in a great spot downtown, and is walking distance from restaurants, and the LRT. Very clean building. Exhibition hall was spacious, and modern. Bathrooms are large, and kept very clean. Really enjoyed my experience here.
CTCC is climate-controlled year-round; in winter stay warm on the +15 Skywalk and in summer enjoy cooler indoor breaks. Check the calendar for seasonal markets and fairs.
