The convention center’s 100,000-sf exhibit hall has 30-ft. clear ceiling heights, is easily divided into smaller spaces, and can handle the weight of an 18-wheeler, making it ideal for groups of all sizes. Working with the team’s lighting consultant, TLC designed flexible lighting systems including high-intensity fixtures. More than 2,000 people can comfortably attend a banquet in the second-floor Grand Ballroom, which has a large pre-function area, can be divided into smaller spaces, and opens into an outdoor terrace.
