Tampa Meetings & Conventions

If you're looking for the ideal location for your next meeting or convention, look no further than Tampa Bay, Florida. Tampa Bay is on the rise as a red-hot meeting destination. It's no wonder, with our stunning waterfront location, 19,000 hotel rooms and spectacular convention center, Tampa Bay has everything you look for in a business destination. And with Tampa Bay's sugar-sand beaches, sunny climate, incredible shopping and dining, entertaining nightlife, golf and attractions, you'll be assured your delegates will be thrilled when your next meeting location is announced.

There is no more spectacular convention center under the sun than the Tampa Convention Center. Located directly on the waterfront in the heart of downtown Tampa, the 600,000 square foot building offers 200,000 square feet of exhibit space, a 36,000 square foot ballroom, and 36 breakouts which total over 42,000 square feet. Outdoor areas which overlook the beautiful water of Tampa Bay are available for group functions up to 7500 people.

The Center is conveniently located within walking distance to hotels, restaurants and clubs. So, after a busy day of lectures, seminars or classes, attendees are welcome to visit Ybor City, Channelside (movie theaters, restaurants, shops and nightclubs) or the Florida Aquarium, located just a few steps away.

We provide convention services that will make your meeting in Tampa easy for you and memorable for your delegates.
