Greater Fort Lauderdale is well on its way to becoming a world-class meetings destination. From our convention center expansion project and bustling cityscape, to our beautiful beaches, majestic waterways and endless leisure activities, groups of all sizes are discovering the many benefits of meeting in Fort Lauderdale.
The newly-updated convention center with its expanded 350,000 sq. ft of contiguous exhibit space is now complete, and work continues through 2025 on the remainder of the $1.2 billion expansion project. When the expansion project is completed, the Convention Center will boast more than 1.2 million square feet of event space including the new 65,000 sq. ft waterfront ballroom, an expansive 6-acre outdoor plaza with restaurants, and landscaping to create a parklike atmosphere. The expansion also include the addition of an interconnected 801-room, 29-story Omni headquarter hotel.
The Broward County Convention Center is where business and pleasure intertwine to create the ultimate destination for meetings in South Florida. Located amidst the vibrant backdrop of Fort Lauderdale, the premier venue sets the stage for conferences, sporting events, exhibitions, trade shows, board retreats and more.
