CANSEC 2023

OttawaTourism

Welcome to Ottawa!

 

On behalf of Ottawa Tourism, we are thrilled to welcome you back to our beautiful city for another successful CANSEC trade show in 2023!

With more than 300 companies engaged in the aerospace, defence and security ecosystems housed in Ottawa, the capital is ranked as one of the top places to live in Canada. Ottawa is home to federal government operations, attracting the international diplomatic community, senior government officials, as well as security and military personnel from many departments directly responsible for the country’s security and protection.

The city features a thriving cultural scene, a wealth of historic landmarks, wide-open green spaces and parks, and delivers a truly unique Canadian experience. Our national museums, devoted to science, technology, aerospace, and more, offer creative, groundbreaking, and state-of-the-art exhibitions. Located on the unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabe nation, Ottawa offers a dynamic cultural milieu that embraces the Indigenous heritage of this land. As the capital of a bilingual nation and on the border of the province of Québec, you’ll hear both English and French (and a multitude of other languages) on our streets. Add in its clean, green, natural setting, and you have a capital that attracts millions of visitors every year.

When your business is done, we encourage you to explore some of the many attractions of the area. A pedestrian-friendly downtown core that is home to many remarkable hotels allows delegates to attend an event and then take in the city’s many sights with ease. From beautiful museums to outdoor adventure in any season to award-winning restaurants and high-end shopping, you can be sure that there is plenty for everyone to see and do.

To find out what’s on while you’re here, visit www.ottawatourism.ca and be sure to share your experiences with us on social media using the hashtag #MyOttawa. We hope that your time in Ottawa is productive and fulfilling.

Enjoy your visit to Ottawa, and we sincerely hope we have the pleasure of welcoming you back soon!

 

Yours Sincerely,
