PARKING
There is plenty of free parking at the Keystone Centre. If you're staying at Canad Inns, you can park in front of the hotel and walk through the breezeway to the registration desk at the Manitoba Room (turn right at the UCT pavilion). If coming just for the day, you can access the Manitoba Room where the registration desk and trade show are set up either from 18th or 13th Street. If you're heading south on 18th, turn left (east) on the first street after Canad Inns (Queen's Ave.) and drive around behind Canad Inns. You can park close to the Curling Club or the Main entrance off the Manitoba Room. If you can't navigate stairs, there is a ramp at the Curling Club entrance just to the north of the Main entrance. For exhibitors, the loading area is just north of the Main entrance (see Loading Zone on map below).
