San Diego is a wonderfully unique and truly beautiful city by the sea – a slower-paced, Southern California town known for its many businesses and pleasures. One of San Diego’s greatest pleasures is its citizen’s and visitor’s enjoyment of the “most perfect climate in America” (if not the world). San Diegans live much of their life outdoors under perennially blue skies with near “perfect” temperatures that are rarely too hot or too cold. This is why the San Diego Convention Center’s 90,000 square foot “Sails Pavilion” had originally been built as an “open air” exhibit area. Today, most of the convention center’s 2.6 million square feet of meeting and exhibit spaces are glass or otherwise enclosed.

Located directly on the Harbor, the Sails Pavilion provides the San Diego Convention Center with one of its most recognizable and distinguishing features. Its architecturally inspired roof is constructed of Teflon coated, fiberglass “sails” that symbolize and celebrate the convention and exhibit center’s close proximity to the sea.

The San Diego Convention Center is an
International ...
... and Hometown Favorite

While the San Diego Convention Center Hotels attracts millions of attendees to national and international events, it’s also a hometown favorite meeting and exhibit space for local educational, cultural, charitable, social and numerous other events that make the convention center a very special venue to San Diegans from all walks of life.
