What's Distinctive?

TELUS Whistler Conference Centre

The TELUS Whistler Conference Centre is situated in the heart of Whistler’s pedestrian Village and within easy access of hotels and activities. Since the completion of a multi-million dollar renovation, the 65,000 square foot Conference Centre boasts increased meeting space, countless room set-up options to accommodate groups of every size, the latest environmental standards and unique design characteristics.

Located in the Grand Foyer and utilizing stones from the local mountains, the three 40-foot Rumford fireplaces exude visual appeal and welcoming warmth upon entry into the Conference Centre. The Grand Foyer is also a wonderful area for holding offsite events as well as a perfect venue for delegate receptions or registration. Skylights allow natural sunlight to filter into the room by day while the Village’s lights provide ambiance at night.

Whether you’re planning an elite incentive trip or a larger meeting or convention, Whistler delivers. And when you combine an incredible destination with an award-winning venue like the TELUS Whistler Conference Centre, you’ll quickly discover why higher-than-average delegate attendance isn’t just wishful thinking; it’s reality.
