The second floor contains six smaller meeting rooms that are perfect for boardroom meetings. Our third floor boasts a 672 seat Theatre with full theatrical capabilities, six dedicated dressing rooms, a VIP Lounge that overlooks the Exhibit Halls, and ten breakout rooms that can be combined for larger meetings.
