Venue and hotel
Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center
Centrally located in South Carolina’s historic state capital, the convention center is in the middle of an exciting urban scene that includes open-air cafes, deluxe accommodations, live music, exciting sports venues, and concert tours.
With our temperate seasons, Columbia offers attendees a perfect year-round business and social climate with a wide variety of world-class cultural and natural attractions. We’re also only minutes away from the airport and interstates, giving you access to anywhere you need to be.
A COVID-19 update from CMCC: We are so thankful for the technology of virtual meetings and that will continue to play an important role in the landscape of meetings moving forward, but nothing compares with the real connections and engagement of gathering face to face. With experience hosting events in this new normal since June 2020, you can rest assured that our staff has had safety as a top priority since reopening our doors.
