Metro Toronto Convention Centre (South Building)

A new name and location with the OVMA conference experience you've come to know and love! 

Every year, OVMA delivers the country’s premier veterinary conference and trade show. With a diverse program covering the hottest topics in veterinary medicine, our program offers something for every member of the veterinary practice team. Choose from a variety of clinical topics, from dentistry, internal medicine, equine and so much more, or a dedicated RVT stream.
