Often when I go for car shows, multimedia conventions,and convenience's sake, it's so clean, has a good staff, and concessions are pretty good.
However the food is extremely overpriced for said convenience. You can go to the Renaissance for that if you don't mind a walk/shuttle/drive instead.

Signage and parking are poor, but once you get there, put on your walking shoes because there are few events that don't require a mile's walk. Staff are minimally helpful and difficult to find.

I love coming here for the auto shows they handle crowds very well and it's always pretty clean here parking can be tricky though.

I highly enjoyed my visit here. Admittedly, I don't swear by their food. I had a hotdog there that I wouldn't even feed to a starved dog. Also, the food is a little too expensive for what you are getting. On the bright side, the architecture is amazing.

Was there for Annual International Auto Show, and parking was great right at Cobo Center. Restrooms were very convenient and clean. Wish there was more selection of places to eat on-site. Places where Adults and or their children can catch a break from the crowd. People mover access within Cobo does allow for more food selection off-site, but are more time consuming.

We went to see the robotic First 2019 competition. Great location the entrance to the city. Neighbor of the former Joe Louis Arena. The food concession is quite varied from taco salad to pizza. A few minutes walk from the GM tower with concessions such as Mcdo, Subway and Gyros. If you have a big event to organize it's the place in Detroit. The wifi is free, ATMomatic counter inside. There is also a souvenir shop in the city of Detroit.

After trying and trying to figure out where parking was for the Cobo Center, I finally figured it out. Once I did, trying to navigate the giant building was intimidating. However, there were maps literally everywhere, and it was clear which people were employees you could ask. If you have an event there, make sure you leave time to walk through the building to get to where you need to go. It's very clean, organized, and functional. No wonder there are so many events at the Cobo Center!

Was there for work. Broke down lunch 30 min early. Then 45 min later offered us warmed up leftovers, no drink. Food was cold and tough to eat. Given voucher for food court.....chicken was cold, fries cold. No one seemed to care about it. Poor food, poor service

Went to Cobo for the North American International Auto Show and had a great time, as always. My company also held our end-of-year holiday party at Cobo back in Dec, and the space was excellent. They took good care of us and our event.

The staff here are awesome! We tried out for #agt . It was late when we were done and we were lost trying to find our car so the security guard walked us all the way to our car when he could have just pointed and said good luck. Very kind man! It was a great experience all around! Beautiful facility!

Pretty good facility for 2 events I'm usually involved in - the NAIAS (Auto show) and the Turkey Trot race. They've recently renovated the lower portion of the building, and it includes a great entrance right off the Detroit river walk. Bathrooms are always relatively easy to spot, accessible, and in decent condition.

The renovations have made a major improvement to the venue for guests and hosts alike. This is a great collaboration of multiple counties and groups, and a sign of great strength in Detroit.
