About us
It’s at the heart of the city, both geographically and culturally. Within 10 blocks in each direction, there are famed landmarks, including Independence Hall and America’s most historic square mile, Chinatown and the Stunning Friendship Gate, and lovely Rittenhouse Square. And it sits right above the Reading Terminal Market, which offers a vast choice of mouthwatering regional and international food. It’s also an economic powerhouse. From its opening in 1993, the Pennsylvania Convention Center has reinvigorated the surrounding district and the city itself, and has supported more than 77,000 jobs in the hospitality industry. And so many visitors come through our doors that it accounts for almost 50 percent of all hotel rooms in Center City. With the 2011 expansion—the size of two full city blocks—the Center increased its size by nearly 60 percent, allowing to two major events and multiple smaller meetings to be conducted at the same time. The Center is also ranked as one of the top 10 largest convention centers in the country. We can’t say it any better than the Urban Land Institute: "The Pennsylvania Convention Center has energized its downtown neighborhood and brought Philadelphia back as a major player in the tourism and hospitality market. A central downtown location and a design that opens to the street and blends with its surroundings distinguish this from most other major convention centers. More than a successful convention center, it is also a premier civic space, a destination in its own right."

We hate to say goodbye, but we are so proud of our first cohort of Generation Forward #interns. Today was their last day at the #PAConventionCenter and they did an outstanding job presenting their final projects and sharing how they lived our "We Are 10s" core values during their 12-week program. We wish them all the best as they return to school to continue their education and career journeys. #internships #FacesOfThePCC #GenerationForward #ASMGlobalActs

Philadelphia was bathed in crimson and cream last weekend for Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc.'s 2024 Eastern Regional Conference. Thousands of sorors, including PHLCVB finance manager Jackie Santiago, from one of the "Divine Nine" organizations gathered at the Pennsylvania Convention Center for a weekend of special events, awards ceremonies, competitions, community, and much more. Outside of the convention center, events took place at the adjacent Fashion District Philadelphia and Macy's Center City. #discoverPHL #Philadelphia #DST1913 #DSTInTheNews #DSTRegionalConf2024 #EA54thRegionalConference #ElevatingSisterlyAffection
