Great venue. Super impressed with how clean the venue was and how pleasant the staff was. Everyone was helpful and took care in maintaining the venue. I used to coordinate large meetings and this space would have been ideal. Large main exhibit hall and a lot of smaller rooms for break out sessions. There are also plenty of restrooms that are handicap accessible. Amazing common areas with beautiful views.The center is also conveniently connected to the Sheraton and Courtyard, both of which have very good restaurants, rooms, and plenty of amenities.I highly recommend this space for your next event.

This parking garage is located near the Bayfront Convention Center. I parked my vehicle here for three days and two nights when I was staying at a nearby hotel. The cost was $14 per night, which I paid through my hotel. This garage has levels from the ground to 3. The condition looks to be fairly new. The area seemed to have low crime, so I felt safe walking and parking my vehicle here. The elevators worked well.

I am attending a conference at this convention center. The view is great but it's totaled DESERTED! Who wants to hold a conference here in the winter time hence the emptiness of the halls/rooms/convention center.The convention center is catering the meals. It is HORRIBLE!!!! For breakfast they served canned fruit, small boxes of cereal and bacon/cheese sandwiches. Yes, I know this is what the host ordered but I mean appearance and quality should mean something. (See pics) NOT everyone east bacon or meat - be sensitive and have a meat free option!!!The lunch was taco and it was yuck. Yes the meat was not cooked well and was not properly prepared.They served deserts which were not allergy friendly - both cakes were topped with NUTS which was very disappointed to those in the group with allergies.Can you imagine having a work conference from 7 am to 430 pm and leaving hungry?!?!? I sure did!!

It's right on the water with both inside and outside places and seating. Good condition lots of glass and we'll lit. A quite large place that just held the tax sale over 300 people barely seemed like no one there.

A lovely place. When you think of convention centers you usually think of huge large spaces with no windows and confusing parking. So you can imagine my surprise when we were invited to attend a wedding rehearsal dinner at the bayfront convention center. However, from the minute we parked to the end of the night, I knew that the bride and groom had made a great choice. First off, the parking is simple and plentiful - no confusion there. Secondly, the view is just BEAUTIFUL. While you're walking to your event room you have a wonderful view of the water on your right (floor to ceiling windows) and it is really breathtaking. In fact, I enjoyed every time I walked to the bathroom because you got to walk along the view of the water. They also had people with golf cart type things indoors - not sure if they were there for the people who have more difficulty walking long distances, but they definitely were up for giving us rides too. The rehearsal dinner had an open bar and the alcohol was definitely top shelf. They even handed out water bottles even though there was water at the dinner too. The food they selected was mexican food (both vegetarian and non-veggie) and it was yummy. In fact, the thing I REALLY appreciated about this place is that they kept the food there all night and did not remove it after dinner time was over. As a result, there were opportunities for seconds when it got later in the night :) The dessert was also pretty good. I would highly recommend this place for any event.

I just had my wedding here in the grand ballroom. The event coordinator, Martha Stickner, couldn't have possibly done a better job. It went off without a hitch. The staff was courteous, knowledgeable and extremely efficient. The food was fantastic all around from the appetizers to the main course and the wine, beer and liquor selection was top notch. All ofthis with the beauty of Presque Isle Bay in the back ground. We could not have picked a better place for our Reception. Just absolutely spectacular!!!
