Culture + Entertainment District

C+E District

        

At the heart of the emerging Culture + Entertainment District, Scotia Place will breathe new life into the city streets, attracting visitors from near and far to experience the new hub of sports and entertainment in Calgary. 

As part of the downtown revitalization work, Scotia Place, as well as other critical infrastructure and projects, play a crucial role in how people interact and move around the C+E District, enhancing the connections between people and places.

The C+E District improvements enhance the lives of Calgarians and bring life back to downtown Calgary. Many projects in the district have already been completed, making the district an ideal location to visit.
