CALGARY, Alberta, May 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The Global Energy Show Canada (GESC), presented by dmg events, is taking place June 10-12, and it’s shaping up to be the most important and transformative edition to date. Recognized as Canada’s annual national energy event, a strong delegate representation is expected from the oil and gas sector again this year, as well as sizeable diversity in representation from the nuclear, hydro-electric, geothermal and hydrogen sectors. The gravity of issues facing the Canadian energy sector amidst global geopolitical uncertainty alongside debate on what a definitive domestic energy strategy could look like over the next five years is driving historic urgency to this year’s conference.

With pre-registration trending ahead by 73 per cent over last year, organizers are preparing more exhibition and conference areas to accommodate a larger and more engaged audience coming to Calgary this June. Over 30,000 attendees from more than 100 countries will gather at the heart of Canada’s energy capital to engage in pressing, high-stakes dialogue on the future of energy — from affordability and investment to building national energy infrastructure and diversifying the country’s energy buyers globally.

“The eyes of the world will be on Calgary next month. We’re expecting to host what is likely the highest levels of speakers in the show’s history, with CEO and ministerial speakers from around the world,” said Nick Samain, Senior Vice President North America at dmg events. “With energy issues dominating both the recent Canadian federal election and changing international energy issues, plus the timing of the event right before the G7 Summit, the show and the city are ideally positioned to contend with crucial issues around energy security, affordability, access and investment in new projects. The event is an integral platform to showcase the tremendous potential we have to define the future of Canada’s energy future.”
