Spokane Convention Center

A Proven Championship Venue

Spokane Convention Center has successfully hosted athletes from across the globe for a wide variety of sports—from volleyball to judo to roller sports.

Located in the heart of downtown Spokane, the convention center is ideally situated along the banks of the Spokane River.

The Spokane Convention Center campus sits on the banks of the Spokane River, located in the heart of downtown, providing spectacular views of the 100-acre Riverfront Park along with close access to numerous restaurants, hotels, entertainment opportunities and unique shopping. The campus, which includes the INB Performing Arts Center and the Spokane Convention Center is attached to two major hotels and surrounded by many others. Built specifically to host events, the Spokane Convention Center is the region’s premier choice for conventions, sports events, banquets, meetings and social events. 


With the completion of the 2015 expansion the Spokane Convention Center has more than 300,000 sq ft of user-friendly space including a 120,000 sq ft exhibit hall, three ballrooms and the flexibility to host 40 breakout spaces. Unique spaces include a 270 seat intimate Conference Theater and a highly appointed Executive Boardroom, both feature cutting edge technical capabilities. 

The design of the expanded space was inspired by the desire to create a well-appointed space that is functional and efficient, to make a connection between the facility and the natural beauty of the area and to meet the current and future needs of facility users. The result is beautiful, modern space with a north facing window wall that brings in natural light and provides amazing views of the river and Riverfront Park. Each event space is surrounded by lobbies and public areas that invite guests to relax and enjoy the ambiance or engage in spontaneous conversations.   


For warm weather events, there is the spectacular Roof Deck, and new Riverside Terrace, each with a panoramic view of the river and Riverfront Park, perfect for up to 500 people for a stand-up receptions. A floating stage with stairs that seat over 1,000 people sets a dramatic stage for large concerts or intimate weddings. An Event Lawn, outside patios and the Breezeway between the First Interstate Center for the Arts complete the list of outdoor spaces perfect for events from early Spring through mid-Fall.
