Hampton—where the Chesapeake Bay, Hampton River, and Atlantic Ocean meet—blends waterfront charm with many practical conveniences that planners love.
The region’s premier meeting venue, Hampton Roads Convention Center features 344,000 square feet of space, including a 102,000-square-foot exhibit hall with a capacity of 14,000 people. The venue’s grand ballroom has a capacity of 3,890 guests for receptions and was significantly updated and modernized in 2021. “The renovation of the convention center ballroom created an unmatched event space,” says Yuri Milligan, director of media and community relations for Hampton CVB. “The convention center also has its BGAC Star™ Facility Accreditation, making it a safe and sustainable venue for all by prioritizing occupant health and building maintenance.”
The venue connects via a covered walkway to the 295-room Embassy Suites by Hilton Hampton Convention Center. On the same campus, Hampton Coliseum features more than 84,000 square feet of space.
Other area accommodations include the 110-room Hyatt Place Hampton Convention Center, which accommodates gatherings of up to 180 people, and the 175-room Landing at Hampton Marina, Tapestry Collection by Hilton, featuring 10,782 square feet of space.
