Denver Convention Center Parking Information

Known as a state-of-the-art facility in Denver, Colorado Convention Center attracts a great number of tourists and event planners. With the purpose to build a multi-function meeting facility, over 100 professional meeting planners worked together and gave their ideas and designs for CCC's construction. Every year, various events and meetings are held in CCC, among which the most indistinctive ones are Denver Boat Show, Great American Beer Festival, and Colorado Thespian Conference.

To cope with its functions, the center has a large coverage, including 584,000 square feet exhibit space, 100,000 square feet meeting space divided into 63 meeting rooms, 85,000 square feet ballroom, as well as the 5,000-fixed seat Wells Fargo Theatre. Besides, Colorado Convention Center is surrounded by over 8,000 hotel rooms, more than 250 restaurants within easy walking distance, and a large number of shopping sites.

Do you wonder about CCC's parking facilities since it serves a variety of events? If numerous visitors and participants of meetings flood into the venue in the same day, will there be any traffic congestion or delay? You can feel relieved about this problem, for Colorado Convention Center provides a large onsite parking garage with 1,000 spaces. Another highlight of this garage is that it is directly accessible to the Center and Denver Performing Arts Complex. Even if all these parking spaces are occupied, downtown Denver offers you over 40,000 off-street parking spaces, so parking can't be easier for visitors to Colorado Convention Center.
