The New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center (NOENMCC) anchors the historic New Orleans riverfront, where the slow churning Mississippi meets the fast-paced business district and toe-tapping rhythms of the French Quarter. Beyond the city's festive atmosphere, the NOENMCC offers the adaptable, secure technology and modern meeting spaces needed to host today's top events. With its ongoing $557 million capital improvement plan, the Convention Center continues to level up with state-of-the-art facility enhancements, sustainability upgrades and innovative technological integrations. The NOENMCC is the sixth largest Convention Center in the United States and provides the largest single exhibit space in the country - 1.1 million square feet of prime exhibit space on one level, all under one roof. The facility's soaring 59-foot ceilings cover nine formal exhibit halls and 140 meeting rooms, and its New Orleans Theater can seat more than 4,000 people. Exhibitors and event attendees enjoy easy access to the NOENMCC's business center/UPS Store; three on-site restaurants and an in-house convenience store. Known for innovative delivery of exceptional event experiences, the Convention Center is also a leading contributor to the city's robust tourism economy: NOENMCC event activity has produced $90.1 billion in economic impact since its 1985 opening.
