The Austin Convention Center is a great place to meet new people, especially during events such as SXSW.

The convention center is very spacious which means there's a lot of people during conferences. I like how the restrooms are spaced out throughout the building. There are also water jug dispensers in case you get thirsty. And if your phone or laptop battery is low, feel free to plug it in the several outlets along the walls. They have food stands and coffee shops, but the items are kind of pricey.

What I really like about the convention center is that they always have signs to direct you to the correct place. This is really helpful when I'm lost and need to get to a meeting quickly.
