Welcome home

This is a youthful, modern city that has emerged as an Events, Conventions, & Tradeshows powerhouse. Explore the largest urban park in Canada, witness one of Canada’s Signature Experiences in the RCMP’s Sunset Ceremonies, and be blown away by Regina’s amazing event hosting capabilities.

One of Canada’s Best Hosts

Enjoy all the assets you might need to put on a truly spectacular event. Regina’s REAL District is the largest interconnected EventPlex in the country and is home to the modern and versatile Mosaic Stadium.

Saskatchewan consistently has one of the highest rates of volunteerism anywhere in Canada, and that volunteer spirit is on display in Regina anytime a major event is in town.

To top it all off, Regina’s size and the proximity of event venues to a variety of hotels and restaurants is a true competitive advantage that few other cities in North America can offer. We bring people together, we lead with prairie hospitality, we welcome newcomers in with open arms and treat them like a local.

Hosting events is what we do.

In the spirit of reconciliation

This land is Treaty 4 Territory—the ancestral lands of the Cree, Saulteaux, Dakota, Lakota, Nakoda and homeland of the Métis. We acknowledge the harms of the past and are committed to moving forward in the spirit of reconciliation and gratitude—respecting and honouring the treaties that were made on all territories.

Economic Development Regina is advancing the Calls to Action to foster economic prosperity for all in the Greater Regina Area. We are committed to celebrating the culture, values, and language of Indigenous peoples to preserve the spirit and intent of Treaty 4.
