San Diego Convention Center

The stunning San Diego Convention Center is a jewel of the San Diego waterfront, and sits right on the doorstep of vibrant Downtown San Diego and its historic Gaslamp Quarter. The Convention Center is an ideal place to host meetings of all kinds and sizes, with more than 525,000 square feet of contiguous exhibit space, 72 meeting rooms, a gorgeous 185,000-square-foot outdoor terrace and much more. The center, which was one of the first in the nation to achieve the prestigious GBAC STAR™ facility accreditation for cleaning and safety protocols, also offers a wide range of hybrid event offerings featuring in-person programming paired with virtual components, from video calls for small meetings to presenting interactive keynotes with multiple live speakers across locations.
