With world-class meeting facilities, seamless connectivity, and a team committed to success, planners can bring their biggest ideas to life in Detroit.
When calendars fill quickly and event expectations continue to rise, meeting planners need a destination that offers more than great venues—they need flexibility, ease of access, and confidence that every detail is covered. Detroit delivers all three, giving organizations the resources and support to successfully execute year-end meetings and prepare for the events ahead.
Detroit’s unique advantage starts with choice. The city is one of the few U.S. destinations with two true convention centers, offering planners more than 1 million square feet of combined exhibit space across Huntington Place in downtown Detroit and the Vibe Credit Union Showplace in Novi. This flexibility creates more scheduling options, greater availability, and the ability to match each event with the right setting—whether it’s an urban waterfront experience or a convenient suburban location.
Detroit’s meetings infrastructure is also evolving to meet future demand. Huntington Place’s $125 million expansion will add 20,000 square feet and introduce Detroit’s first convention-connected hotel, featuring a skybridge to the new 600-room JW Marriott. The Vibe Credit Union Showplace expansion will further enhance regional capacity with new hospitality and mixed-use amenities.
Getting attendees there is just as seamless. Detroit Metropolitan Airport (DTW), Delta Air Lines’ second-largest hub, offers more than 140 nonstop destinations across three continents, and 60 percent of the U.S. population can reach Detroit within a 90-minute flight. Strong interstate access also makes the city a convenient choice for regional attendees.
Beyond infrastructure, planners gain a trusted partner in Visit Detroit. The organization’s experienced convention services team provides complimentary support from early planning conversations through event execution, helping organizers focus on what matters most: creating memorable attendee experiences.
