Convention Center Highlights

The San Diego Convention Center is located on San Diego Bay in the heart of a downtown, near the Gaslamp District and Petco Park.

The architecture of the San Diego Convention Center is innovative and compliments the ecclectic character of the area.

The San Diego Convention Center hosts popular consumer events like the San Diego International Auto Show and San Diego Boat Show that millions of San Diegans flock to every year.

In addition, the San Diego Convention Center is the city's premier gathering place, where local meetings, banquets, educational, cultural, religious and social functions are held on behalf of all members of the community.

The San Diego Convention Center opened in Nov. 1989. An expansion in Sept. 2001, doubled its size.
