There aren't medal ceremonies being held here anymore, but at the heart of the core you can find some interesting events taking place, summer or winter!
Music festivals, Calgary Corporate Challenge, art installations, or go for a skate on the only outdoor ice with Zamboni maintenance!
If you are in for some solitary time, grab a book (the library is just around the corner) and have a read. Olympic Plaza also offers a great outdoor venue to eat your lunch.
My only complaint is since it's in the centre of things, there is a high vagrant presence and when it rains the grass here gets super soupy and the concrete basin doesn't really drain.
