Advantage Boston

The Boston Convention & Exhibition Center is the world's most spectacular, customer-driven convention facility. The largest convention facility in the Northeast, located in South Boston Waterfront, less than a ten-minute drive from Logan Airport, the BCEC features 516,000 square feet of contiguous exhibit space, 84 meeting rooms, a 40,020 square foot ballroom overlooking the city skyline and Boston Harbor, and a world of customer amenities and specifications. Even the architectural design of the BCEC reflects a unique, innovative, and customer-centric approach. The features and benefits of the facility incorporate input from virtually every corner of the meetings and convention industry, including meeting planners, association and corporate executives and national and international trade show producers.

There are many reasons that make the BCEC the best convention facility in the United States. It starts with its location in the heart of Boston, within a two-hour travel radius of the largest and most important attendee base in the country, less than 10 minutes from the airport, and minutes from thousands of hotel rooms, hundreds of restaurants, and city sights. Because the BCEC was built by users and for users, it provides a convention/meeting experience that is 100% geared to the highest levels of attendee and exhibitor satisfaction. The high-ceilinged, nearly column-free exhibit halls are designed to accommodate exhibits of virtually any size. The meeting rooms are completely state-of-the-art, and completely configurable. The Ballroom is one of the most spectacular special events settings in the world. From physical specifications to user amenities to meeting planner services, the BCEC is truly a unique facility.

The BCEC is less than 10 minutes and two miles from Logan Airport -- closer to the airport than any other convention facility in the country. Take a taxi, take the "T" transportation system, take a bus, or take a water shuttle -- the choice is yours.

The BCEC is within minutes of metropolitan Boston's 35,000 hotel rooms located in such convenient and historic locations as the Seaport District, downtown, the financial district, Back Bay, Cambridge, and the airport.

Boston boasts the best and most diverse lineup of convention facilities in the country. In addition to the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center, these include the Hynes Convention Center; the World Trade Center; the Bayside Expo Convention Center; and many outstanding hotel venues.
