visalia convention center

This venue was TOO small for our cheer competition. But it was organized very well and made everything work out.

Very well serviced place and ideal to hold meetings in Visalia and the nearby area..good parking facilities and excellent coffee render the place invaluable in a area with few options

Sound was really poor in meeting and presentation rooms. Otherwise, the facility was welcoming. Parking is convenient.

Staff was so attentive, polite,& friendly. It was such a wonderful experience that our group voted for future conventions to be held here.

The Visalia Convention Center is, and has been, a great place for bigger regional conventions. The facility is clean, parking is fair and amenities were pretty basic. For example the onsite concessions were quite limited without adequate staff to handle the few attendees that chose to use there services. Keep in mind that this is also a Pepsi only facility.

Great convention center for such a small city. Free parking. Part of a Marriott hotel. Located downtown

I attended a small professional conference here and the experience was repeatedly hampered by the poor quality of the convention center, especially the A/V in the rooms. I didn't go to a single presentation in the three day conference where the poor speaker didn't have the mic cutting in and out. What a nightmare! There was a lot of moving a way from the mic and shouting. It was mildly amusing at first but it got old really fast. What staff we could find was surly and unresponsive. There were also lots of groups of them in the out of the way places gossiping and leaning on their stick vacuums. I don't think this convention center is a well-managed venue. Find some alternative, although Visalia is cute as a button.

Didn't expect to find this nice a conference facility in the Central Valley. The seminar rooms were roomy and well equipped. Great food during the session breaks. Only downside was the exhibit hall, which was the location of the conference speakers. It's a large multi-purpose facility that doesn't do intimate well.

Nice convention center, frequently in use. Friendly staff, good sine age inside, clean with comfortable temperature, 1block from downtown with many restaurants, hotels adjacent to it and another across the street. Good parking availability

Comfortable seats. We attended music concerts for six hours each evening for a total of three evenings.

I like the Home and Garden show when it's there. Sometimes there's a antique show also. They have all kinds of conventions and venders several times a year. I have had first aid lessons here. Company Dinner party's. At least it seems to get used a lot, that's good for our city.

Attended a conference there that had previously been held at the Holiday Inn. This venue is much better, with more (and less claustrophic) space for vendors/exhibitors, plenty of meeting rooms, and several hotel and restaurant options close by (walking distance).Parking seems to be a problem, but I didn't have a car. The convention organizers had some issues with dealing with multiple entities instead of just one, but I think it is worth it.

Downtown location with inadequate parking available. The surrounding city parking structures are low profile so a high profile vehicle will not fit and lack of security leaves your vehicle vulnerable. The convention center also had inadequate places to sit down if you were not in a conference room.

Like the facility and being adjacent to the Marriott was a plus. Within walking distance of a neat downtown area with shops, pubs and restaurants.

very big. they also have space for weddings, meetings and even school events very clean staff is friendly great security as well
