Ontario Convention Center and Visitor's Bureau Reviews

Took my stepdaughter Gia here for her first Anime Convention. The area is nice, well kept, and rather easy to find. It's right 9ff the 10 freeway and near the Ontario Airport.

I've been here for the annual quilting convention held yearly in January and I was there for a scrapbooking convention last November. It's a very nice place. Very clean and modern. The classrooms are spacious. The food is good. The parking is expensive though. Ten bucks . All in all though, it's a very nice place to hold a convention.

What a fun afternoon at the Pinners convention. Too bad it didn't last through tomorrow!

Everyone was very helpful and professional from staff to security. Parking is a little confusing.

Very limited free street parking that fills up fast. $10 paid parking was available.

Scary not recommended without hygiene and with cockroaches of course I demanded reimbursement

Parking is well managed here which is critical for a convention center. Easy to get in and get out with plenty of great hotels in the area. Only thing lacking would be eateries. Lots of fast food, but not a lot of good restaurants.

Big place...we always go there for victory outreach womens and mens convention clean spacious close to hotels and food places

Only went to register for route 66. Havent seen the rest of the place. Just one room

This place was actually a surprise. It's large but not too large. It has ample space to fit in a pretty large crowd of people. Went to the E.C.C. convention and had a pretty great time except I ended up hanging out with new friends as opposed to the ones I went with but it is what it is. Love the free parking around the venue super close street parking. Or if you want to park on property its not terribly bad. Its $10 for 5 passenger vehicles and then goes up per seat from there. I think for 6 passenger vehicle its 25 and so on and so on. Has great air conditioning. And good staff. The staff could be trained more in certain matters their customer service lacks a bit but over it was deal-able. You could put up with it is what I mean. They have plenty of rest rooms and conessions.

I hope God will win the random lottery. I love America, I love Los Angeles. I am from Morocco, 28 years old. I love the people of America, a good greeting to you

Was at the GHS expo for #moneymunchkids. One of many expos hosted here.

I take my kids to compete here for Compete International Martial Arts Championship. There is plenty of parking and Security is great.

So tired of the security saying we can t WALK thru parking lot. We paid to be here. Can t walk in as a shortcut but they get to walk out?! It makes no sense!!!!

The fact that the concession stand wanted to charge me $1.50 for a cup to place water in is ridiculous. Then they mentioned that I could get free refills (of water) all day. Food is way overpriced at the concession stands and there is no in-and-out parking, so make sure you bring food or just don't park in their lots.

Road to California was great as usual Enjoyed going and will return next year.

Very expensive to get in. The food trucks wanted 8 dollars just for a boba and 17 for a burrito.... A.l.a was asking for way too much than things were worth there. That's my personal opinion.. You've gotta be in a well paying job and go with a group of friends in order to have the most fun. I've gone to anime cons in California since 2012 and they've lost their magic due to how unaffordable they are now.

This place is run by people with more money than sense

great place!! very big!! i had my first dance competition here and it was amazing

we went for cheerleader competitionvery big lots of parking

Well maintained and the perfect evemt center to rent for your event. Plenty of parking and always enough security.

The parking- $10
You can't leave to eat or they charge you again and there's no real food inside the place! Ughhh

At a Comic-Con convention there had a blast can't wate for next one

Attended an annual convention here for Key Club, the worlds largest youth service organization. Turned out to be a pretty good convention, convention center was centrally located with ample hotel space nearby.

I attended Vape event here last August, it was great

Modern venue, the people who run the place are jerks

Wonderful convention center, located in a great area. There is quite a bit of space, which is obviously important, so it takes quite a bit for the place to feel cramped. Very clean and well maintained, I honestly have no complaints at all. My favorite convention center by far. Hotels are many as well as walking distance, some great food options too. Can't go wrong at all!

Edit: Here again for Anime Los Angeles, if the janitorial staff is provided by the convention center itself, they deserve a raise. Everything is kept so clean despite there being a few thousand people here right now.

Beautiful building, convenient location, and easy to park.

This review is for the actual Convention center from the view of vendors. Not attendees.
Overlapping shows or events to try to squeeze in more money is a pain in the rear for both event holders. We struggle for parking making all park as far away. With no simpathy they charge 10 dollars to park. Whats worse?? THEY DONT ALLOW ANY FOOD OR DRINKS!! Any! They check your bags by the entrance so that they can upcharge you for food and drinks. Yeah, you may say that pretty much all venues do this. But to the actual Vendors that rent the place to hold the events? Thats not fair. We pay a huge amount to hold the event. We have to pay to park and for our employees to park. We have to pay for food and drinks. We cant leave because then we have to pay for parking again!!
I will not contribute to this insanity anymore. Last time we hold an event here!!!

Very well designed held a company conversation and we used the whole second floor while at the same time another event was being held down stairs and it never felt crowded. Staff made sure everyone knew where to go and was very professional.

Went here for the Harvest Festival. Staff was very pleasant and accommodating. Very clean and nice.

Went here on 8/4/19 and there was a super scary gun show going on. Bunch of gun toting crazy people walking around. Talking about guns, handling guns, selling guns. They even had pink and tiffany colored guns that you hold with your hands, think they were targeting children and women with those colors. Just awful. There was even a jk the gun show was awesome. Took my wife, mom and 2yr old son. The convention ctr was clean. Easy to navigate. Staff was friendly. Plenty of security around. Great 1st experience at this ctr.

Beautiful facility that hosts many different kinds of events. Convenient to freeways from all over Southern California.
Excellent staff to make everything run smoothly.

Best place to get the latest in the trucking industry

nice place. but I don't like the strict security check

Nice facility. Went there for my daughters dance comp. Clean place but the employees there are pretty clueless to event arrangements and policies.

Always love going here for Anime Los Angeles, there are more food options popping up so it's becoming a more convenient convention center.

Food was not tasty or very warm. The coffee was very expensive and they only offered one size, small.

Security is more concerned about food contraband instead of items that can actually pose a threat. The guards were nice, you can just tell that their bosses only wanted them to focus on keeping out food and drinks.

The restrooms were not well stocked, many stalls were missing toilet paper and paper towels.

Ontario Convention Center is located by Ontario International Airport in California. The convention center is well staffed and maintained capable of handling some an event of over 25,000 people. I have been at events here three times. and I have enjoyed them all.

Nice convention center. It can hold any kind of events you can think of because it is quite large.
However, parking is pain

Love the space, employees are very helpful and nice..

ALA @ Ontario convention Center is fantastic!
We are from the, Sacramento area and they could learn a thing or, Two from, Ontario!!

Nice clean new venue with a terrible catering contract such that the cafe doesn't open when the venue is in use it opens on its own hours and yet you're not allowed to bring any of your own food or drink in

Went to a weekend convention and this place decided not to run the air conditioning all day Saturday, in summer, in Ontario.

$10 a day parking even for vendors.

Nice big building for Conventions but no outside food or drinks, cafe available to purchase those things.

Great facilities! The layout isn't confusing at all, so it's not difficult to find your way around.

My wife and I attended a Convention there. It was okay.

Has a lot of space!! I loved the variety of option and was great!

Great space with fresh food now conveniently inside

It was a small convention center but had a lot of parking and close hotels for cheap. Had clear signs of where to go for picking up badges and events.

I am here for a quilting expo, and I am enjoying the space. Its surprisingly quiet which is important to me because I dont like noisy spaces. The staff is helpful and friendly and there is adequate space to move around. The downside is the parking is a little scattered and far

Layout and parking is nice. Many restrooms and it is easy to move around during a convention.

Its ok. Not as big as Anaheim or the los angeles convention center. I also went for a jeep convention and it was pretty small. So i didnt get to walk around the entire convention center.

If I'm going to attend a convention I'd hope that there's enough places to get a drink of water but sadly this place was not hit especially when I was partially dehydrated on a hot day. For a venue the air-conditioning is stable 5 as an up-and-coming business entrepreneur I cannot see the value in renting a place that does not have enough bathrooms or enough watering stations for Hungry consumers.

Great location!! Horrible management. #LostACustomer

Security, comfortable parking, very clean. Special for big events

I when for my wife's graduation and they would not let me bringvin my camera.
