BALTIMORE IS
A Great Place to Meet
BALTIMORE IS THE IDEAL DESTINATION FOR YOUR
NEXT CONVENTION, MEETING, TRADESHOW OR OTHER EVENT. Our central location at the crossroads of the Mid-Atlantic region makes it easy to get here by air, rail or highway. And once you are here, the city is easily accessible either by walking or using numerous public transportation options. Our compact downtown convention campus features a variety of great hotels, attractions and dining, and beyond the city center, there are a plethora of hip, historic and trendy neighborhoods for you and your attendees to explore.
In addition, our distinguished venues
are the perfect fit for any size gathering, whether it’s a major tradeshow at the 1.2-million-square-foot Baltimore Convention Center or a general session at the Royal Farms Arena, which can accommodate events ranging from 5,000 people to more than 14,000. Our world-class hotels can accommodate a mid-size conference, or you can introduce
a product or host a special event or
meal at one of many unique museums or attractions. If you’re looking for something less formal, perhaps a traditional crab feast at a waterfront seafood restaurant is the answer. In Baltimore, you can do all of this and more.
Once the main business has been completed, Baltimore offers a renowned performing arts scene, award-winning restaurants and a long list of unforgettable museums and attractions. The city also has a vibrant nightlife, along with world-class shopping sure to entertain your attendees.
If the Inner Harbor is Baltimore’s heart, its neighborhoods are its soul. Our
92 square miles are divided among lively communities, each with distinct personalities — from historic to upscale to kitschy, all are charming. The fast, free and green Charm City Circulator hybrid buses and the Baltimore Water Taxi make it easy to explore many of our diverse neighborhoods.
To ensure that planning is as hassle- free as possible, the Visit Baltimore staff serves as a liaison to assist with mapping out the ideal arrangements for your group. Visit Baltimore, the Baltimore Convention Center and our entire hospitality community are dedicated to making your event a success.
