Located on 31 acres along Miss America Way in Atlantic City, New Jersey, the Atlantic City Convention Center is the first place to investigate events in Atlantic City. With 500,000 sq. ft. of floor space, 45 meeting rooms, five exhibit halls, and indoor parking for 1,400 vehicles, this Atlantic City special events venue is the best place in town to take in special exhibitions.

Since the Atlantic City Convention Center opened in May of 1997, it has become a mecca for events in Atlantic City. In 1999, the Atlantic City Convention Center was nominated for the EACA Intrepid Award, and award given to an organization displaying a superior ability for delivering excellent customer service beyond the client expectations.

The center itself hosts conventions, conferences, trade shows, and premier events open to the public. At a cost of $268 million, the Atlantic City Convention Center is the largest and most expensive public project in Atlantic City’s history, and was intended to be the centerpiece of the multi-billion dollar Atlantic City rejuvenation plan that included the Atlantic City outlet mall “The Walk” as well as the Boardwalk Hall renovation, and many new casino expansions.
