Memphis is more than a meeting location. It’s an experience. The city debuted the fully modernized Renasant Convention Center in 2021. Just steps from iconic Beale Street, the venue connects the Mississippi Riverfront with Memphis’ walkable downtown. With 300,000 square feet of flexible space, it’s sized just right for groups that want to enjoy a “takeover” rather than lose themselves in a larger venue, while offering unique spaces for any group, including a 118,000-square-foot column-free exhibit hall, a riverfront terrace, a glass-walled board room overlooking Memphis’ Main Street and the 2,051-seat Cannon Center for the Performing Arts.
In addition to the Renasant Convention Center, Memphis features unique off-site venues—from Elvis Presley’s Graceland to a historic distillery—that remind you: You’re in the home of blues, soul and rock ‘n’ roll, surrounded by live music, iconic attractions and food that will feed your soul.
You’ll also find an array of new sports facilities, including the Memphis Sports & Events Center, thousands of new hotel rooms (including options within walking distance of the Renasant Convention Center) and extensive upgrades at Memphis International Airport, making it easier than ever to reach this centrally located city. And, despite its development, Memphis remains an accessible destination for meetings and events, thanks in part to reasonable airport transfers, average daily rate and food & beverage costs.
Wherever you host your event in Memphis, the Memphis Tourism team—with decades of combined experience—provides complimentary planning services.
