About this venue

The Miami Beach Convention Center (MBCC) is an award-winning venue reimagined following a $640 million renovation, welcoming more than 600,000 visitors annually. It offers roughly 1.4 million square feet of total function space, anchored by Exhibit Hall ABCD, which provides about 491,651 gross square feet of contiguous, configurable space. Additional facilities include a 60,000-plus-square-foot Grand Ballroom, four junior ballrooms, up to 84 breakout/meeting rooms, and a 98,495-square-foot Grand Lobby. A LEED Silver certified green building, the campus also features two public green spaces — Pride Park (about 6 acres) to the west and Collins Canal Park (about 3 acres) to the north — the Rum Room restaurant, venue-wide WiFi, and the GBAC STAR facility accreditation for cleanliness and safety. It sits in the heart of South Beach, steps from Lincoln Road, Ocean Drive, and the Art Deco District.

Parking

The MBCC has an onsite parking garage with about 800 spaces, including accessible/disabled spots, EV charging stations (on the 5th floor rooftop level), and bike racks. Parking is a $20 flat fee, with garage decks on the 4th and 5th (uncovered) levels. Enter from 1901 Convention Center Drive (West) or 2000 Washington Avenue (East). Garage hours are 6am–1am, 7 days a week. Valet service is available (provided by 1st Class Parking near the West Lobby). The nearby 17th Street Parking Garage (17th St. & Pennsylvania Ave) offers additional parking, and the Park Me app shows real-time availability and rates for area lots.

Getting there

The nearest airport is Miami International Airport (MIA), about 12 miles (roughly 20–30 minutes) from the convention center; it is one of the largest and busiest U.S. airports and a hub for major international carriers.

Getting around Miami Beach: the City of Miami Beach's free trolley and Miami-Dade Transit buses (with stops at 17th Street and the MBCC) serve the area, and the Metrorail connects from the airport. Rideshare via Uber and Lyft and the free eco-friendly Freebee service are widely available; car rental is also convenient (Avis discount code available via the event site).
