ExpoCité, Exhibition and entertainment complex in Lairet, Canada.
ExpoCité is a contemporary exhibition and event venue in Quebec City with modern buildings, large glass facades, and a stone base. The grounds contain distinct areas for exhibitions, administrative offices, and public spaces linked by pathways and landscaped areas.
The site began in 1898 as an exhibition ground and gradually developed into a major event and administrative center. Over time it has added modern facilities while maintaining its role as a focal point for the community.
The site serves as a gathering space for exhibitions and public events that bring different communities together. Visitors can see how the large windows and open layout make it easy for people to move between the exhibition halls and outdoor areas.
The grounds have ample parking and direct bike paths with bike-sharing stations available. Shuttle services operate to nearby transit terminals during major events, making arrival and departure easier.
The eastern facade features an inventive metal block structure with strategically placed windows and sunshades that control natural light throughout the day. This design creates a shifting pattern of shadows and light that changes with the time of day.
