Rail Transport
DISCOUNT CODE NO LONGER AVAILABLE FOR EXPO-SCÈNE.
VIA Rail has updated their guidelines regarding convention codes. They no longer provide discount codes for events that do not include a conference or symposium. Although EXPO-SCÈNE includes multiple educational opportunities and training, it is not a conference in the proper sense. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Visit the VIA Rail Deals and Discounts page to find ways to save on your ticket price. They also have recurring offers, such as Discount Tuesday, as well as sales and promotions throughout the year, like the Black Friday sale.

We also wish to acknowledge the strong ties that bind the Anishinaabe Nation to this territory, known to them as Mooniyang. Today, the lands of Tiohtià:ke / Mooniyang are home to a diverse Indigenous population, as well as people from other nations who reside here.
