With all that Memphis has to offer, you will want to be in the center of the action.

Downtown Memphis is alive with new growth and at the heart of it all is the Memphis Cook Convention Center and Cannon Center for the Performing Arts. The convention center, only 20 minutes from the Memphis International Airport, boasts the stately 28,000 s.f. Cannon Center Ballroom, a column free Main Exhibit Hall of more than 120,000 s.f. 31 meeting rooms and the impressive 2,100 seat Cannon Center for the Performing Arts. Add to all that a 35,000 s.f. special exhibit hall and parking for 750 cars.
