We have a special and exciting story to share with you today! We’ve been working away with Island Health in Victoria to get a vaccine clinic up and running at the Archie Browning Sports Centre, and during our initial setup, Global’s own Evans Chan (Account Manager for Western Canada) got his first vaccine shot! Talk about workplace safety! 😉

Swipe to see our initial plans versus the final setup.

Shout to Island Health for their support. 🤝

We have some big news! We’ve acquired Superior Show Service in Alberta! 🎉

We’re so excited to take on Superior’s inventory and roster of trade show clients and partners. We especially look forward to building on Superior’s existing partnership with the Calgary TELUS Convention Centre with the focus of enhancing the level of services and products offered to our mutual clients.

This acquisition allows us to expand our existing Calgary operations and position ourselves to service all of Alberta. We can’t wait to see what our future in Alberta (and beyond) has in store!

This year the Tri-City Dance Centre in Coquitlam, BC asked us to help with their submission to a local virtual dance competition, so we put together a theatre-style setup at their studio, complete with 8’ drape for a back wall and side wings. 👯

We are always impressed with how inventive our clients are!

Yes, that’s the STANLEY CUP!

As we prepare for the 2021 IIHF Women’s World Championship in Halifax, we’re “flashing” back to that time when Chris (Halifax Account Manager) and one of our 4’ tables were graced by the presence of the Stanley Cup. That’s right, THE Stanley Cup.

We loved working with the Memorial Cup team in Halifax in 2019! It was a wonderfully simpler time when spectators didn’t have to mask up and athletes didn’t have to “bubble” prior to the competition.

Do you remember those days?
