Don't know that an arena/dome would have more room...BC Place advertises just under 250,000 square feet of show space...that is about the same as the BMO Centre by itself, not including the Corral or Big Four. As I noted above, the new Ag Building will add some space, and so would the extra hall of BMO Centre that is eventually planned. Maybe with the Global Petroleum Show being every year now, and the Expo doing so well, Stampede will move faster on that faster than they had planned?
