Fun Fact
Calgary is one of the best places to experience Chinook winds in Canada. This warm wind blows down the Eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains, drying and warming Pacific air as it descends and can raise the temperature by twenty degrees in a matter of hours, even in the coldest months.
Registration and Passport Reminders
Bouchercon 2026 is ten months away! Register here and start planning your trip. Remember to check your passports now, so you have time to renew or apply if you need to.
For more information specific to Canada, please note the information in the Visiting Calgary portion of our website, with emphasis on sections concerning passports, Canadian currency, and using your cell phone.
Registration Tip: Thanks to all those who've reached out to us with their concerns about registration documents. ExpoPass has made changes and has passed on advice to ease the registration process.
First, make sure you add support@exposent.com to your trusted senders.
When you successfully register, you'll receive two emails from support@exposent.com: a receipt and a confirmation email. Sometimes the second email is automatically bounced as spam so please check your spam/junk folder for the confirmation email. This is where you’ll find the information and links for booking hotel rooms as well as important Bouchercon policies you'll need for the convention.
If you don't receive these emails within 24 hours, please reach out to us at Registration2026@bouchercon.com.
Please Note: Convention registration and payment can only be completed through the Bouchercon 2026 website. We will never send a link for payment via email, PayPal, Zelle, etc. Payments are to Bouchercon Inc., in U.S. dollars.
Hotel Information
Calgary offers three hotels with special rates for Bouchercon attendees: the Hyatt Regency, the Marriott Downtown, and the Fairmont Palliser. All three are incredible, ready to welcome you, and a skywalk connects them to the convention centre, so you’ll be protected from the elements.
The special rates available for Bouchercon attendees are only open to those who have completed their convention registration. If you book a room using the Bouchercon rates and are not registered for the convention within two days, your room reservation will be revoked.
Hotel registration can be found here. Make sure you check each hotel for their cancellation policies before booking, each one differs and they’re booking up quickly!
