EXPERIENCE BALTIMORE
“In Baltimore, we have
the most INCREDIBLE
INGREDIENTS and
producers surrounding
us. It’s a VIBRANT FOOD
SYSTEM that I care deeply
about supporting.”
— Spike Gjerde, Woodberry Kitchen, 2015 James Beard Foundation’s Best Chef, Mid-Atlantic
Foodie Renaissance
With equal parts innovative eats and alluring ambiance, Baltimore’s restaurant renaissance adds chef-driven concepts, inventive food halls and artisanal neighborhood eateries
to its Chesapeake specialties. Pop by a food hall like R. House between meetings, carry on the conversation at networking happy hours at cocktail bars like Bookmakers, or finish the evening with a premium ice cream cone at The Charmery.
“Baltimore could be the MOST PATRIOTIC BIG CITY in the union.” — Forbes.com
Convenience
Baltimore is located at the crossroads of the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast, a region of 50 million people, making it easy and affordable for attendees to get here. Just a 20-minute ride
to downtown Baltimore, Baltimore-Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport offers more than 650 flights per day to 79 domestic and 13 international destinations. The walkable convention campus with its 9,000 downtown hotel rooms is down the street from Amtrak’s Penn Station, a major stop on the Northeast corridor service.
City of Neighborhoods
Baltimore is a city of diverse, distinctive neighborhoods, where cobbled streets
give way to brilliant murals and Victorian facades nestle next to steel and reclaimed timber. Trendy, eclectic, historic or modern
— you’ll find it all easily accessible from the downtown convention campus. Explore funky Hampden, historic Mount Vernon, nightlife hot spot Fell’s Point, and more.
