| Profile: |
Recently named to Forbes
magazine’s list of the
country’s fastest-growing
cities, Charlotte, NC, is a work-meets-
play town that marries
a bustling business district
with award-winning restaurants,
museums, and attractions.
In the heart of the city’s
compact, walkable Uptown
is the 550,000-square-foot
Charlotte Convention Center,
a premier meeting space that
offers exhibitors numerous
amenities, including free Wi-Fi, a food court, other in-house food and beverage options,
knowledgeable visitor info services, an on-site UPS store, and more.
A 15-minute ride from Charlotte Douglas International Airport and within walking distance
of more than 200 restaurants, the convention center sits across the street from a Whole
Foods Market and is bookended by The Westin Charlotte Hotel and the Hilton Charlotte
Center City. It’s also connected to the NASCAR Hall of Fame via an overstreet walkway.
KEY FEATURES
AMPLE AMENITIES
Totaling 280,000
square feet of contiguous
trade show
space, the venue’s
exhibit halls can
accommodate 1,250
booths or be divided
into four halls. Four
freight elevators, 20
covered loading-dock
bays, three concession
stands, and
in-house electrical and
plumbing keep events
running smoothly.
BEYOND
CONVENTION
The 86,000-square-foot
NASCAR Hall of Fame
features multiple event
spaces, including a
19,000-square-foot outdoor
plaza. The venue
provides a unique
backdrop for large
events, as it’s capable
of accommodating up
to 2,400 people. Run by
the same company as
the Charlotte Convention
Center, it enjoys
in-house catering and
other amenities.
UPCOMING
EXPANSION
Beginning this spring,
the convention center
will undergo a $110 million
expansion that will
be available for contracting
in spring 2021.
The project will add
roughly 50,000 square
feet of breakout meeting
rooms and prefunction
space. An overstreet
pedestrian walkway will
also connect the venue
to The Westin Charlotte
Hotel, two other hotels,
and the city’s light rail. |
