A Historic Expansion for Modern Meetings & Conventions

In a city steeped in history, another chapter is being written with the expansion of the Savannah Convention Center. The state-of-the-art waterfront facility is doubling in size and adding new features that benefit planners and attendees alike.

The 660,000-square-foot Convention Center is currently open and has 200,000 square feet of exhibit space, an additional 40,000-square-foot ballroom, 32 total breakout meeting rooms, a partially covered rooftop patio, a 58-foot-wide hanger door, a facility entrance with an all-glass facade and 900 parking spaces. The LEED Gold-certified center also has a noteworthy number of sustainability initiatives. The venue offers affordability and low IT costs and is buyout-friendly. And in a nod to the city’s distinguished art and period architecture, pieces by local artists adorn the center.

On-Site Dining

The Convention Center features an award-winning culinary team offering a diverse menu for groups ranging from intimate business meetings to conventions of 10,000 people. The center is a proud member of Georgia Grown, a statewide network of farmers and suppliers, which has allowed the ability to provide catering options that incorporate fresh, local and sustainable options to attendees when available.
