The Toronto Congress Centre (TCC) is an event, meeting and trade show complex in the former city of Etobicoke in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, located near Toronto Pearson International Airport. It has over one million square feet (93,000 m2) of exhibition space between two buildings, making it one of the largest facilities of its kind in Canada and North America.

Contents

Built in 1995, the Toronto Congress Centre has 60 meeting rooms, two ballrooms (one being pillar-free) and ten divisible exhibit halls. The convention centre is HACCP certified and is one of the only trade and convention facilities in North America to receive this certification, denoting the highest standards in food preparation safety. Their cuisine is prepared in-house by their 5-star Executive Chef and culinary team. Parking is currently free for all attendees.

The TCC opened in 1995 as the largest in Canada, with close to 500,000 square feet (46,000 m²) of exhibit space. However, it was surpassed by the Enercare Centre 1,000,000 square feet (93,000 m2) in 1997, the Metro Toronto Convention Centre (600,000 square feet (56,000 m2)) in 1997 and the International Centre (548,000 square feet (50,900 m2) in 2002), following various expansions and renovations at those venues. The TCC has since expanded its exhibit space to over one million sq. ft with the addition of a second building (a vacant industrial building purchased in 2006), north of the current building (referred to as the North Building).
