Waco Convention Center

The 144,000 sq. ft. Waco Convention Center is the premier meetings and convention facility for Central Texas. With a 33,000 sq. ft. exhibit hall, a 15,000 sq. ft. tradeshow hall, an elegant ballroom seating over 600, plus 12 breakout rooms, this flexible venue can handle small and large conventions, seminars, and tradeshows. The convention center’s “sweet spot” is meetings from 400-1,000 attendees.
