Health & Safety

We hold your health and safety above all.

Providing a safe and healthy venue for our staff, guests, clients and business partners is our number one priority. We want you to be confident that we have taken all steps necessary to ensure our venue is among the safest places to host and attend events.

Health and Safety Protocols

In addition to following all public health restrictions implemented by the Government of Alberta, Alberta Health Services and the City of Edmonton, we have enhanced our health and safety protocols throughout our entire operations. Some highlights include:

Staff Screening

Edmonton EXPO Centre staff will be subject to enhanced screening measures upon arrival to their shifts.

Physical Distancing

Protocols will help maintain a two-meter distance between you and other people outside your group cohort.

Cleaning and Sanitization

We will increase the frequency of which all front-of-house and high-contact areas are cleaned and sanitized.

GBAC STAR Facility Accreditation

The Edmonton EXPO Centre is among the first venues in Canada to successfully achieve the GBAC Star Accreditation, which is the cleaning industry’s only outbreak prevention, response and recovery accreditation for facilities. This means our cleaning and sanitation programs are accredited and validated by the gold standard program that prepares venues with the right systems to protect against biorisks, including COVID-19.
