Conference Facility Information
Welcome to Fort McMurray
Home to the Athabasca Oil Sands, the Regional
Municipality of Wood Buffalo is one of the largest
municipalities in all of Canada. Made up of eleven
unique and vibrant communities it is evident
that there is so much to see and do in the region.
Located 435 kilometers north of the capital region
of Edmonton, our area has a population of 104,338
people. That number is continuing to grow as the
region is becoming more popular and is beginning to
attract new residents.
A diverse cosmopolitan population has found a
“home away from home” here in The Regional
Municipality of Wood Buffalo. It is this global
representation that contributes to the cultural
richness of the region. While an indigenous
population of Chipewyan and Beaver are native to
the Athabasca region, by the 1870s the Cree, Metis
and Euro-Canadians also made their homes here.
Today the diversity of culture in the region is both
recognized and celebrated.
Being the largest unincorporated “city” in Alberta,
Fort McMurray is equipped with many state of the
art facilities as well as modern infrastructure all while
being located in the heart of the Boreal Forest. This
rare combination of true urban and rural settings
provides residents and visitors (both domestic and
international) a huge variety of opportunities in
recreation and culture.
