Moose Jaw Exhibition Grounds are home to livestock shows, events and Burrowing Owl Centre

Located at 250 Thatcher Drive East, The Moose Jaw Exhibition Company is home to numerous functions and agricultural events throughout the year. At the north end of the spacious grounds, the Golden Mile Arena and outdoor show rings house horse shows, cattle and bull shows, dog agility training and shows, and many other events.

The grounds also host two convention/meeting centres. The Convention Centre offers banquet space and on-site caterers and can accommodate up to 1,000 people. Meanwhile, the Golden Nugget Centre offers a more intimate setting with a seating capacity of up to 230 persons, complete with a bar and dance floor. The exhibition grounds also house the Saskatchewan Burrowing Owl Interpretive Centre (SBOIC), home to the endangered burrowing owl species. Opened in 1997, the interpretive centre is dedicated to raising public awareness about the Canadian Prairies’ endangered species, particularly the burrowing owl and its habitat. Schools from across the city and province visit the centre annually to view the resident owls and take an educational tour. Every summer, the Moose Jaw Hometown Fair brings days of excitement to The Friendly City. This event is a playground of fun for children — and adults too! The Moose Jaw Exhibition Company entertains more than 90,000 visitors every year during its many events and activities.
