THE PERKS
San Diego is one of the nation’s most vibrant urban cities—and the convention center is at the heart of all the action. The exhibit space recently underwent a complete renovation and features an industry standard trade show floor, high-tech lighting, and a cooling and heating system for maximum comfort year-round. On-site private vehicle parking is available at the underground garage located below the San Diego Convention Center. And, most importantly, it offers a majestic setting to showcase the leading galleries, exceptional artistic talent, and specially curated programming that has distinguished Art San Diego in Southern California and beyond.
