Cretaceous Conference Centre

Drumheller has a landscape unlike anywhere else in Canada. The Badlands rise in layered hills and coulees, and a wedding here can feel like part of a much older story.

The Cretaceous Conference Centre sits next to the Canalta Jurassic Hotel on Highway 9 South in Drumheller. It is offered as a venue for corporate and private events, and the team welcomes weddings with care for every detail of the day.

The centre's 2,548-square-foot banquet room is the heart of a wedding celebration here. It can accommodate up to approximately 140 guests for a banquet, giving couples space for a full dinner, speeches and dancing.

A 20-foot by 20-foot dance floor and state of the art audio and visual equipment help the evening come together, while two smaller meeting rooms offer additional space for more intimate gatherings around the main event.

Because the centre is part of the Canalta Jurassic Hotel, guests can stay right next door. The hotel offers spacious rooms and kitchenette suites, free high-speed Wi-Fi, free parking, a complimentary hot breakfast and some pet-friendly rooms.

That makes it easy to turn a wedding into a weekend. Friends and family travelling to Drumheller might spend the day before exploring the Royal Tyrrell Museum or Horseshoe Canyon, both a short drive through the valley.

For couples who want a practical, welcoming celebration in the heart of the Canadian Badlands with accommodation steps away, the Cretaceous Conference Centre offers a comfortable home base for the whole occasion.
