Campus Tours

Explore campus on this 1-hour walking tour guided by knowledgeable staff. Get a unique peer into some of our most influential spaces, including those that are typically reserved for participants, faculty, and performers.

Tours are subject to change depending on campus activity, but a tour with us may include: a backstage walk through our theatre complex, a peek into our Visual Arts facilities, a session inside the Music Huts, and an exclusive visit to the current Walter Phillips Gallery exhibition, celebrating its 50th anniversary this summer.

Learn how Banff Centre went from a single drama course in 1933 to a global leader in arts, culture, and creativity as part of your 2026 Banff Centre Summer Arts Festival experience.

Tours will occur rain or shine. Please dress for the outdoors, and be prepared for uphill and downhill slopes.
