By This is not just another business convention; the Uganda Canada Convention & Tourism Business Expo 2025 is a celebration of connection, culture, and possibility. Scheduled for July 11–13, the convention will take place at the elegant Courtyard by Marriott – Downtown Toronto.
Now in its 8th year, this vibrant gathering is more than a networking event—it’s a bridge between continents. With the spirit of Uganda meeting the energy of Canada, the weekend promises to spark your ambitions.
Expo Venue
Nestled in the heart of Toronto, the Courtyard by Marriott Toronto Downtown offers a seamless blend of modern comfort and urban accessibility. Located on bustling Yonge Street, this hotel places guests within walking distance of major attractions like Dundas Square, the Eaton Centre, and the University of Toronto’s St. George campus.
The hotel boasts spacious accommodations featuring pillowtop mattresses, mini-refrigerators, sleek work desks, and complimentary Wi-Fi. Select rooms offer balconies with views of the cityscape, providing a serene retreat amidst the downtown energy.
Guests can maintain their fitness routine at the 24-hour gym or unwind at the on-site Bistro, which serves a variety of breakfast and dinner options, along with Starbucks coffee and evening cocktails.
Additionally, the Tourism Roadshow will take you on a visual journey through Uganda’s lush landscapes, wild safaris, and rich heritage. Breathe in the aroma of freshly brewed Ugandan coffee at the Diaspora Community Business Breakfast, where entrepreneurs and changemakers share their stories over steaming cups and warm conversation.
There’s the B2B networking for those ready to strike deals and build partnerships—and then there’s the heart-thumping cultural performances, where dancers in vibrant kitenge fabrics move in rhythm to traditional drums that you’ll feel in your chest.
As the sun dips low, the Sunset Boat Cruise offers the perfect exhale. Watch the colours of the sky melt into the water while you mingle with fellow attendees, drink in hand, possibilities on your mind.
