Located in the heart of downtown Dallas, Kay Bailey Hutchison Convention Center Dallas (KBHCCD) welcomes more than 1.5 million visitors, attending major national and international conventions, meetings, concerts, athletic competitions, auto shows, and more. Centrally located, attendees can easily reach nearby restaurants, attractions, and major airports within minutes.

Cementing its status as one of the largest convention centers in the nation, KBHCCD offers 1 million square feet of exhibit space, three ballrooms, 88 meeting rooms, a 1,750-seat theater, and a 9,816-seat arena. Additionally, the award-winning facility is connected by skybridge to the 1,001-room Omni Dallas Hotel and is adjacent to two Vertiport landing pads.

KBHCCD has recently undergone a significant technological and infrastructure enhancement, a nearly $1 million investment in partnership with Smart City Networks. This upgrade ensures that all events, conferences, and exhibitions held at KBHCCD are equipped with lightning-fast connectivity, enhancing the overall experience for attendees.

In 2024, Dallas jumped to number four in the nation for meetings and conventions, rated by Cvent. Slated to begin a groundbreaking expansion in 2024, KBHCCD is poised to only increase in prominence.
