Planning a big event? Eastern Ontario’s largest exhibition centre offers 220,000 square feet of space just minutes from the Ottawa International Airport.
Located 20 minutes south of downtown Ottawa, the Cohere Centre is ideal for larger events like trade shows, warehouse sales, and concerts, but its configurable space means it can also host smaller meetings, conferences, receptions and galas. The largest uninterrupted exhibition space is 150,000 square feet, and the entire facility can hold up to 10,400 people. Ample outdoor parking is available.
The Cohere Centre has its own in-house catering team and partners with other suppliers to provide audio-visual, ticketing, furniture, signage, marketing, and security services for your event.
