Why Cincinnati Should Be on the Top of Your List for an Upcoming Conference

Cincinnati is a city where innovation meets tradition, where you can find award-winning restaurants, sports and unparalleled hospitality. It’s where the North and the South meet. It’s where we put chocolate, nutmeg and cinnamon in our chili on top of a plate of spaghetti with a mountain of mild cheddar.

Situated within a day's drive of 60 percent of the U.S. population, Cincinnati ensures that attendees can reach your event with ease. Once in Cincinnati, you have a number of unique venues from which to choose. Whether you're envisioning a sleek, modern conference center, a historic landmark steeped in character or a suburban location, Cincinnati delivers.

The Sharonville Convention Center is a premier venue and facility for meetings, conventions, banquets, tradeshows and public events. It recently completed a $21 million renovation that doubled the exhibit hall to nearly 40,000 sq. ft. In addition to expanded exhibit hall space, the project includes a full kitchen, a restaurant and sports bar, an admission ticket window and 1,000 on-site, complimentary parking spaces.

Just a short drive down I-75, you’ll find the downtown Duke Energy Convention Center, which is undergoing its own more than 200 million transformation. Soon it will be a state-of-the-art, top-of-the-line modern convention center with all the amenities a planner could want or need. When complete, the new convention district will feature new restaurants, retail and a new outdoor area connected to the convention center, giving you the ability to bring your meeting outside the convention doors.

Of course, no event is complete without comfortable accommodations, and Cincinnati delivers on that front, too. With more than 26,000 hotel rooms spread across the region, finding the perfect place to rest and recharge is a breeze. Whether your attendees prefer the familiarity of well-known chains or the boutique charm of local accommodations, they'll find comfort and convenience at every turn.
