WELCOME TO
Baltimore
GREETINGS!
Rich in history and East Coast charm, Baltimore is a waterfront destination with strong economic anchors, thriving cultural and culinary scenes, and more than 200 diverse neighborhoods that offer visitors a rich and unique travel experience.
Getting to and getting around Baltimore couldn’t be easier. We are accessible by car, train and plane. The Baltimore Convention Center is within walking distance (or a quick water taxi ride) of more than 9,500 hotel rooms and a vibrant tourism campus, including the attraction-packed Inner Harbor and flagship neighborhoods like Harbor East and Federal Hill. When you factor in the ease of doing business here, it’s easy to see why Baltimore is known for offering great value. In fact, our “Meetings with More” brand celebrates this fact while reaffirming Visit Baltimore’s commitment to providing exceptional customer service and resources for meeting professionals.
And while Baltimore is already a vibrant city with so much to offer, we are growing, as a community and as a premier meeting and travel destination. BWI Thurgood Marshall Airport continues to expand its low-fare domestic and international footprint; millennials are flocking here for jobs and city living; and, cranes dotting our skyline speak to the many investments underway in our residential, office, retail and hotel sectors. These developments, along with major events such as Light City Baltimore, have also helped illuminate our neighborhoods and draw positive national attention to Baltimore’s unique arts and cultural offerings, thriving culinary scene, and cutting-edge innovation and ed-tech sectors.
Put simply, Baltimore is the perfect place to get more out of your next meeting, convention or tradeshow. Visit Baltimore’s sales and services team is here to answer all of your questions, and to show you why publications like Travel + Leisure are saying Baltimore is the "coolest city on the East Coast." We look forward to welcoming you to Baltimore soon!
