Industry-leading Venues
Sustainability is a top priority for Toronto’s convention centres, venues, and meeting spaces.

This world-class venue features over 442,000 sq. ft. of exhibit space, 77 meeting rooms, multipurpose ballrooms and a fully equipped theatre. Every year the MTCC reduces its environmental footprint by diverting 90 percent of event waste from landfills and decreasing energy consumption.
Exhibition Place has also raked in numerous awards and accolades for its sustainability efforts.
The entire facility has signed the Net Zero Carbon Events Pledge.
