I'M COMING TO THE EVENT, WHERE SHOULD I STAND?
From Louise McKinney Park and the surrounding area, you'll have a great view of the finish line. You can also catch the action from below the Shaw Conference Centre on Grierson Hill Rd and in the surrounding green space. From Jasper Avenue, you'll have a view of the starting gate. Although none of the viewing areas capture the entire track, there will be large screens projecting the races live from every angle on Jasper Avenue, in Sir Winston Churchill Square and at various points of the track itself. Space is limited and spectator zones are first-come, first-served. Each portion of the track provides its own excitement, so choose wisely!
