The Titan Entertainment Group Inc. Calgary, Alberta, Canada.: "Monday, September 19, 2005
Titan America ; The Titan Entertainment Group Inc.
The Titan is a multi-purpose entertainment, hospitality, and multi-show type facility with Hotel and specialty retail destinations. As such Titan is a 'first-of-its-kind' in Canada. Comparable facilities are found principally in Las Vegas, NV where large hotels have major entertainment facilities. California has new entertainment facilities built by Disney, including a stand alone venue called the “world-famous Walt Disney Concert Hall”. The Walt Disney hall has 2,273 seats, and offers a rehearsal hall and a small mixed arts theatre on its campus.

The conclusion of our initial R&D indicates low initial investment requirements, a positive return on investment and a strategic location complementing present strategies. The feasibility of development and pre-planning indicate a strong market, relatively low risk and a short time line to achieve intended results. As the project moves forward, additional resources will be added to meet ongoing requirements."

In Greek Mythology, the Titans are a race of Godlike giants

Titan Offering Memorandum

The Titan Entertainment Group Inc. is just releasing its Offering Memorandum (OM) contact Titan

No Securities Regulatory Authority has Assed the Merits of These Securities or Reviewed this Offering Memorandum. Any Representation to the Contrary Is an Offence. This Is a Risky Investment.

There are numerous risks associated with this investment. Purchasers should not subscribe for Preferred Shares unless they are prepared to accept the risk factors.

• The Company’s business concept is to develop mid-capacity complexes (8,000-10,000 capacity), to be called "The Titan," for the presentation of live music, theatre performances, arts and entertainment, conferences, trade shows, conventions and any other event possible. The live entertainment areas of the complexes will be designed with tour production in mind to make backstage activities operate more smoothly and efficiently.
• The Titan project is in response to a growing trend in North America for the development of complexes that offer ‘multi-purpose flexibility’ particularly in concert set-ups that include end and center stage, festival, and ‘intimate show’ seating. Mid-capacity complexes with a less than 15,000 person capacity are among the fastest growing segment of the industry. Increasingly performers in many entertainment categories and their fans, not to mention the crew prefer complexes with facilities and amenities tailored to meet the demands of the performance and backstage operations.
• As a destination-type, multi-purpose venue, The Titan spans five interrelated industries, namely: 1) live entertainment production; 2) hospitality (restaurant and hotel); 3) specialty retail; as well as 4) conventions and trade shows, and 5) Video and audio recording and broadcasting. Following, under each of these categories, are industry conditions and market trends of interest.
• Production and booking of live entertainment is evolving with regard to the diversity of performance and tours, growth in booking agencies and the production of the Internet. Following are certain trends in these areas:
• Facilities have reported an increased choice of bookings with more international and domestic acts and performers in all entertainment genres.
• In 1999 ticket prices of concerts experienced the strongest growth (40%), with less growth in live theatre (3.1%) and classic music concerts (4.7%).
• Further to the industry data presented above, the following key industry conditions with regard to the facilities provide additional support of positive industry conditions.
• From this year out to 2002, more than $4.25 billion is represented in current investments at 71 facilities in the U.S. and Canada. Included are arenas, auditoriums and performing arts centers, amphitheaters and smaller ballparks doubling as concert venues.
• In Canada, there are an estimated 29 mid-capacity (4,000 to 8,000 capacity) venues that range from amphitheatres, arenas, coliseums, conference centres, stadiums and theatres. The majority of these venues are municipal facilities with some university complexes and private facilities.
• As with other industries, the U.S. serves as a "barometer" for the hospitality industry in Canada as well, though other factors are prevalent in Canada and the western region as outlined in the following trends:
• Construction of new hotel space expanded at a double-digit rate for the fifth consecutive year during 1999, but signs of a slowdown have been reported.
• In the U.S. and Canada, hotel room rates are falling due to oversupply of hotel rooms and the industry as a whole is experiencing declining occupancy rates.
• Industry observers regard the luxury segment as the safest hotel investment, as this segment will not be overbuilt in many areas until 2006 or 2007.
• In Calgary, the hotel sector is overbuilt, causing occupancy rates to slip 6% to 10% in the first half of 2000, while revenue per available room to decline.
• Industry conditions in the hotel segment are generally favorable, particularly the mid-market to luxury class. Although overbuilding in the sector is a cause for some concern …titan offers more
• The Titan, as a multi-purpose entertainment, hospitality and specialty retail destination-type venue, is a "first-of-its-kind" in Canada. Comparable facilities are found principally in Las Vegas, NV where large hotels have major entertainment facilities. Otherwise, from a competitive viewpoint, the Titan's main competition in Calgary, and further locations, will be the individual stand-alone entertainment venues, large hotels with convention facilities and fine restaurants.

This expansion of the live entertainment industry is also reflected in a growth in the variety, number and caliber of performers.

The growing popularity of both North American and International talent has precipitated a shift in the economics of staging such events.

The mid-capacity facility is seen as an ideal venue to achieve the ticket sales and ancillary revenues to stage festivals or groups of acts to "world renowned" or "head-line" performers

The Titan Entertainment Group Inc.

From the late 1990s through and into the new millennium, "multi-purpose" has been an increasing theme in the new construction and renovation of entertainment facilities. Of 30 plus new venues opened across North America in the last 3-4 years, the dominant trend was toward "multi-purpose flexibility" and attention to design, logistics and operations from a "behind the stage level".

Key features of a multi-purpose venue include:

• Flexible concert set-ups for end and centre stage, festival and "intimate show" seating with balconies and retractable seating structures;

• Larger with higher loading docks and staging areas with straight runs up a ramp directly to the stage and venue floor;

The Pengrowth Saddledome:
A modern venue classed as a large facility, the Saddledome was specifically built for playing hockey. The Saddledome will hold a variety of events such as concerts, large conventions and indoor rodeo, motocross, and such. However the Saddledome remains dark for a good part of the year because of its size and team control. Calgarians agree the over all quality of the show is poor due to the setting and the acoustical deficiencies.

The Jubilee Auditorium:
Classed as small venue, the Jubilee holds less than 3000 people and therefore must be very particular as to whom they book, and what style of show they will present to maximize their profitability. The Jubilee is subsidized by the Alberta Government but does not seem too aggressive in the Alberta small venue market.
Mac Hall (Mount Royal College)

This facility has just undergone a renovation and now seats 1800 plus people, all though an excellent theatre management tends to book only those acts that will cater to their student body, thereby severely limiting their profit potential.
Titan management feels the competition from these venues will be minimal for the following reasons,

A. The Titan is a medium size venue and would appeal to many more touring acts of all Genres. The vast majority of these acts prefer this size venue, over large curtained facilities because of the intimacy, acoustics and fan participation.

B. With no medium size venues in Calgary, Titan would facilitate more local, national and international interest. The consumer is closer to their artists, there by creating a more enjoyable show. With the economies of scale titan can offer more profit per seat, better splits on parking and merchandizing.

C. The Titan facility will be designed to a higher standard. The venue will be able to convert from any style of theatrical set up possible, in less time, more often, than any other facility in the world. Its design will set a happy medium to enhance practically all genres of entertainment at any given time.

D. Titan’s marketing ability and our in-house international booking agency, the Internet (www.TitanVenues.com), arrangements with select travel agencies, world renowned hotel management and international retailers will supply the edge over other venues.

E. Through promotional packages, Calgary tourism and the Calgary economics board the marketing staff at the facility will make the Titan venue a destination stop for the international traveler doing business, and the tourist vacationing in the Calgary area.
