Olympic Plaza

Built for the medal presentation ceremonies of the 1988 Olympics, the Olympic Plaza is now a venue used for events throughout the year. You can walk by its reflecting pool in the summer while having an outdoor lunch, or you can head here during the winter to enjoy some outdoor ice skating, free of charge, with the option of renting the equipment on-site.

Do & See

The sight unfolding from the Observation Deck of Calgary Tower is a must for anyone visiting the city. From there, a wide range of activities opens up in front of you: visit the local zoo and meet different species of animals, get thrown back into the 1900s thanks to a historical village's reproduction of that era, or hike and relax in one of the town's many parks.
