The BMO Centre is the largest convention centre in Calgary, Alberta. It is located in Stampede Park, which is in the Beltline district south of downtown Calgary.[2] The BMO Centre was previously known as the Round-up Centre.[3]

In March 2016, the Calgary Stampede organization announced plans to demolish the adjacent Stampede Corral to make way for a $500 million expansion of the BMO Centre.[4]
