RC Show returns to the live stage in 2022

Toronto – Restaurants Canada’s RC Show 2022 will return with a dynamic three-day event held in person at the Enercare Centre and broadcast virtually from Feb. 27 to March 1.

Restaurants Canada is preparing for a full in-person comeback to reignite the industry by combining an in-person trade show along with nationally broadcasted conference sessions that attendees can attend virtually. This will be paired with a program linking buyers directly to the industry suppliers to conduct business efficiently.

Attendees can expect to find the industry’s top brands and suppliers at the live show as well as programming from global thought leaders who will be assembled to discuss key industry issues to support the relaunch of the industry.

“People are excited to get back to normal and attend in-person events. We firmly believe live shows are key for the hospitality industry. However, lessons from our successful 2021 virtual event will have us expanding our online content offering, allowing the industry to continue to learn, connect and grow from anywhere in the world,” says Todd Barclay President & CEO, Restaurants Canada.

The theme of RC Show 2022 is “Revival” and the event will explore new opportunities and tools to improve and strengthen business operations.

Here’s a taste of what you can expect at the live RC Show 2022:
