Tampa Bay is where meetings are perfectly productive — and richly relaxing. Efficiency-boosting amenities fill the newly upgraded, waterfront Tampa Convention Center. Just steps away, find award-winning dining, modern hotels and must-experience attractions. With a stress-free vibe that welcomes all, this singular experience is something we like to call The Tampa Bay Effect, and it’s how we’ll make your meeting shine.
A Treasure of Meeting Efficiency
The Tampa Convention Center gives your meeting the best of both worlds: a scenic setting and a variety of resources. Located on the sparkling Hillsborough River, the venue’s waterfront meeting rooms allow Florida sunshine to brighten every breakout session. And the 200,000-square-foot exhibit hall fits up to 1,000 10’x10′ booths, while the 36,000-square-foot ballroom seats up to 3,600 guests.
Top Off the Day With Acclaimed Restaurants and Accommodations
Just steps from the Tampa Convention Center, you’ll find a hotel option for every attendee. There’s the JW Marriott Tampa Water Street, boasting a rooftop pool and Florida’s second-tallest rooftop bar. You can also experience five-star, award-winning luxury at The Tampa EDITION as well as a suite of other hotel options.
When it’s time to dine, guests can savor everything from MICHELIN Starred restaurants to Instagram-worthy food halls mixing dining and entertainment. Naturally, fresh Gulf seafood is plentiful at every turn.
Go For a Laidback, Scenic Stroll, a Thrilling Adventure or Both
Whether you’re looking for easy escapes or unforgettable team-building activities, Tampa Bay offers plenty of options. Running right past the Tampa Convention Center, you’ll find the Tampa Riverwalk. It offers 2.6 miles of pedestrian pathway to walk or ride a rented bike to celebrated museums, parks and attractions like The Florida Aquarium.
Looking for a more adventuresome excursion? Try Empower Adventures and their high-flying zipline experiences, which are tailored to suit groups. You can also take your team into nature with one of Tampa Bay’s many acclaimed, guided kayaking or standup paddleboard tours. If you don’t want to venture too far from the Convention District, you can rent from downtown’s Urban Kay Stand Up Paddleboarding for a truly unique way to explore the city.
For an adventure in culture, downtown’s Straz Center for the Performing Arts features a full calendar of touring Broadway shows, acclaimed comedians, musical acts and more.
