2025 CONFERENCE LOCATION

Dates: May 6-7, 2025
Where: Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center located at 1101 Lincoln Street in Columbia, South Carolina 29201

Centrally located in South Carolina’s historic capital city, the convention center is in the middle of a vibrant urban scene with dynamite eats, world-class attractions, breweries, and a never-ending roster of festivals, events  and live music. The capital city also offers affordable accommodations, exciting sporting venues, manageable traffic, and warmer weather year-round. Traveling to Columbia is a breeze with three major interstates intersecting just outside of the city and a major airport just ten miles from the city center.

Built in 2004, Columbia’s downtown convention center is a modern and complex with beautiful architecture. The center is a 142,500 square foot facility that includes a 16,700 square foot ballroom, 18,560 square feet of meeting space that can be broken into up to 19 different spaces, and a 23,700 square foot column-less exhibit hall.

The Columbia Metropolitan Convention Center is a GBAC Star Facility. This highly coveted credential is awarded to organizations that follow a rigorous set of cleaning guidelines, disinfection techniques, and infection prevention practices.
