Whether you’re planning a conference, sports tournament, business meeting, reception, gala, or dinner, the University of Ottawa’s Conventions and Reservations team has you covered. Their team of planners can help you select the right space for your event, all year round. They offer in-house catering and bar services and can assist you in arranging for audiovisual and other services, such as security or translation.
The campus is located in downtown Ottawa, adjacent to the ByWard Market neighbourhood and the CF Rideau Centre, the city’s largest shopping destination.
