The soaring Arizona-inspired architecture of the Phoenix Convention Center is designed to share the wonders of Southwestern culture, stimulate the imagination, and welcome guests to this premier meeting destination at the center of it all—downtown Phoenix.
The Sonoran Desert’s natural environment, history and culture were the inspiration for the facility’s design. Thousands of images of Arizona from cultural, historic and geographic points of view are combined with indigenous materials, stones and native metals to form unique design concepts. Every detail—from colors and textures to lighting, angles and entrances—inspires guests to explore the marvels of Arizona. Artwork expressing an array of contemporary cultural perspectives provides visitors with moments of joy, inspiration and reflection.
While there are many quiet spaces throughout the three levels of the convention center, with lots of cushioned chairs and benches, plans are underway to designate a respite room for people seeking rest and a quiet space.
There is free wireless internet access in the building lobby; cell phone reception throughout the center is adequate, if not spectacular. There is a food court on the street level on the North building and several kiosks set up on other levels. Filtered water dispensers are available throughout the building.
Dining options inside the convention center.
