Global Energy Show Canada is poised to generate substantial economic impact for the city and the province, further solidifying Alberta’s position as a global leader in energy.

The tradeshow and conference is expected to welcome more than 30,000 attendees, over 500 exhibitors and delegates from more than 100 countries.
Beyond its global influence, the event generates substantial economic activity for Calgary and area through increased hotel occupancy, hospitality revenue and local supplier engagement. It is projected to contribute an estimated $70.6 million in economic impact for Calgary and area, while supporting over 23,000 jobs. The event is also expected to generate over 56,000 hotel stays, driving strong demand across Calgary’s hospitality sector and bringing thousands of delegates, exhibitors and decision-makers into the city.
"Global Energy Show Canada is designed to create value far beyond the conference itself," said Nick Samain, Senior Vice President, North America, dmg events. "With billions of dollars in investment flowing through Canada's energy sector, this is where global leaders, investors and innovators come to make deals, forge partnerships and shape the conversations that fuel economic growth — for Calgary and for the country."
With international participation at its core, the event plays a key role in attracting investment, strengthening global partnerships and positioning Alberta at the forefront of energy innovation and infrastructure development.
“Events of this scale have a measurable and immediate impact on Calgary’s visitor economy,” says Alisha Reynolds, President and CEO of Tourism Calgary. “Global Energy Show Canada drives significant hotel demand, supports local businesses across the hospitality sector and brings thousands of high-value international visitors into our city. It’s exactly the kind of global event that fuels year-round economic momentum for our city.”
