Went for the Flower show and loved every second. It was needed to get over the blistering cold of the winter. Each design and pattern brought so much joy to my girlfriend's eyes. If anyone needs to see something special, I recommend going to the Flower shows when they come to Philly.

Went for the home show. Had a great time. Facility was clean and easy to find. Only negative was parking in official lot was very expensive. Even with $5 coupon still paid $20 and was only there for 3-4 hrs. Compared with parking other places this was high.

Was there for a auto show. The building needs a refresher, not sure if that's the reason but several major car makes were absent. The empty space on show floor was given to mattress sellers and massage chair makers, lol

Went to PAX Unplugged. It was simply awesome. A lot of it is the great organization of the PAX folks, but the location is pretty great too. Lost a star because the food court and food provided by the convention center itself were mediocre-poor. There is a wawa across the street from the market street entrance and Jake's pizza (great cheeseteaks) on the corner one block north from the Broad street entrance. It was definitely worthwhile to leave and go to those places rather than eat what they were selling inside the center.

Was here for Pax Unplugged. Staff of the convention center were helpful during my time working there during the convention. If hungry food right across the street at the market! I always suggest Becks Cayjin, get the gumbo or the train wreck poboy.

A great place to see all kinds of exhibits. Very large floor. Easy to get to by public transportation. Parking is not cheap $20-30, but no where in this area is. Official garage is tight driving.

I like the convention center. It has a nice atmosphere but the only downfall is they never have any vegetarian options minus fries. I'd give 5 stars if they were more vegetarian friendly.

My experience here was the best. The staff is awesome and I can very polite. They also have a great building for holding large events.
I can say that they keep high maintenance and would like to recommend that you visit in the next event there.

I was here for PAX Unplugged. The facility was acceptable, but has some major drawbacks. First, there were very few places available to take a break and rest. And even fewer places to charge a phone. Both of these are critically important for a 14 hour/day con. Second, the bathrooms and water fountains were in poor conditions. They were dirty, cramped, and frequently out of service. A large number of water fountains were similarly out of service.

As a positive, there was a ton of space and the center is extremely conveniently located in the city.

I was here for the Philadelphia Flower Show, which is reputed to be the best in the country. Coming from Chicago, I was impressed by how accessible the convention center is and how close it is to a reasonably priced parking garage--so NOT like Chicago!

Took my son to the car show. We live in the suburbs but grew up and went to college in the city so I'm very familiar and comfortable with the city but the parking is terrible and they gouge you, $28. The convention center is large and they was no signage for where the entrance is. All the doors we tried were locked and had to walk along the outside of the building until we found a door that was unlocked, by that time we had encountered others who were in the same situation. They could have put up a few disposable plastic signs that stated "Entrance --->"

Came here for the home show but the tattoo convention was going on at the same time, it is a very huge venue that is host to many events and is large enough to have many simultaneously. The staff is very friendly and hospitable, and it is extremely clean here with a very warm and inviting atmosphere

I go to the annual Flower Show. It is always a lot of fun. I love the different themes presented.
I always pick up new bulbs and liquid fertilizer!!

After, we always go to a local Restaurant and discuss what we have seen.
