Parking will be extremely limited at the Canmore Nordic Centre and is subject to availability March 11-17. We strongly encourage all spectators and members of the public to take our free shuttle transportation on competition days to avoid the disappointment of being turned around at the venue. We anticipate there will be NO AVAILABLE PARKING DURING COMPETITIONS ON MARCH 14-17. If you are arriving at the venue outside of competition times (i.e. late at night or on March 11-13) then it is likely that there will be some available public parking.

Visit our Spectator page for the public transportation schedule and map.

Pass you can purchase one online at
