Calgary's New Event Centre, 'Scotia Place'

Jul 23, 2024

Calgarians previewed drawings of Scotia Place, the new event centre to replace the aging Scotiabank Saddledome. The design draws from Indigenous ancestral lands, featuring a central structure with a flame motif symbolizing a home fire, and elements representing fire, ice, land, and air. With construction starting soon, the $926.4 million project includes an 18,000-seat arena and community rink, funded by the city, province, and Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation.
