Atlantic City Convention Center

The award-winning Atlantic City Convention Center brings together people from all over to experience community and togetherness in a versatile venue.

With nearly one million square feet of meeting and exhibit space on over 30 acres, it's one of the largest – and most beautiful – convention centers on the East Coast. The lobby features a bright and airy 90-foot-tall skylit atrium. Sea-inspired art and sculpture designs adorn the building’s walls, floors, and ceilings. Artist Jonathan Borofsky created the flying fish sculptures suspended above the atrium floor.
