Located just 15 minutes from Phoenix’s Sky Harbor International Airport, and with its own dedicated stop on the METRO light rail line, it requires little time or effort to arrive at the Phoenix Convention Center. Saying “goodbye” to the undisputed centerpiece of Phoenix’s world-famous “Downtown Renaissance”, however, isn’t quite so easy.

One of the “Top 20” meeting, exhibition or other special event venues in North America, the Phoenix Convention Center is well known for its “love at first sight” affect on a countless number of unsuspecting visitors to this great Arizona city. The “affect” weaves its spell on nearly anyone who appreciates truly inspired architecture amidst a richly historic downtown that features timeless, Southwestern hospitality. All of this and much more combine to inspire a genuine “love affair” with a truly unique American city that can be difficult to leave behind.
