COVID-19 Safety Plan for Visitors and Attendees

Putting You First

Since 1972, The International Centre has always prioritized the health and well-being of our staff, clients, event attendees and visitors

In preparing to welcome you back, The International Centre team has been working hard to prepare our facility for the long-awaited return of events, meetings and conferences. While our standards for health and safety have always been high, over the past few months we have collaborated with a wide-range of experts including public health organizations, local and provincial government and industry professionals to help develop a set of comprehensive safety measures to keep you safe.

These measures will be regularly updated as guidance from these experts continues to evolve. For the foreseeable future, adapting to new ways of doing business will be a necessity for events to happen.

As a result, The International Centre has developed the TICC COVID-19 Pandemic Task Force to implement and ensure compliance of the best practices necessary to reopen the Centre and create a healthy and safe environment for all.

We look forward to welcoming you back to The International Centre!
