It is a nice facility but it does get very crowded. The space is very open and has lots of natural lighting nice details. It is connected to places like Hard Rock Cafe and Reading Terminal Market and it is conveniently connected to SEPTA s Jefferson Station so it is easy to get there. Also, if you did not know the building used to be Reading Terminal. On the walls you can see where the tunnels used to be.

Flower Show- needs more seating overall for visitors. Needs more seating in eating areas, especially. Trash overflowing in most locations. Restrooms dirty and no paper towels. Bottled water costs $4. Be aware. There were no bag check areas. Security seemed lacking. Tuesday-weekday- and the exhibits blocked by so many people! Too difficult to maneuver though. It was worse than some Saturday shows.

Wheelchair rental for the Flower Shower was over $20. Men's room handicap stall not complaint. Lights didn't even work in the bathroom inside thr main exhibition hall on the east side. Show was mostly vendor and many were unrelated or tangentially associated with horticulture. The highlight was the drawings of the naturalists. They were beautiful and the members were very nice.

Big venue. I've been there for a few different things but most recently the Fancy Brigades show for New Year's which is a lot of fun. For that show there are food stands in on the floor. Overall, the staff does a good job making sure things move smoothly.

Was there at the flower show. Waste of money. There were no Flowers that was different or nothing great about it. For the entry Price of $38 per person, could be better. Will never go again.

The Philadelphia Convention Center is an awesome space. It is centrally located so easy to find. I attend the Philadelphia Auto Show here just about every year. Here for the 2019 PMI Global Conference. They had a variety of food options (vegan, vegetarian, gluten free). The house made chips could be sold! My ONLY complaint is it was ridiculously cold in the building.

Always interesting at the Convention center events.. I was there for the home show again this year and you really need a few hours to get the whole experience. Restrooms leave something to be desired, but with so many people I guess it's a challenge. Food shouldn't be 'ball game' prices, though, considering they're raking in the money.

This is a beautiful convention center! Honestly, it's really cool and clean. The layout makes sense and I had it figured out after the first day. It is a little twisty-turny because it goes over two streets and is several floors but it's not bad. They have little squares of grass for service dogs to do their business. It's also hooked into the public transportation, which is great. But the best thing, hands down, is all the amazing food right across the streets! Between Reading Terminal and Chinatown, you've got a huge selection and all of it was good! I would go back for another convention in a heartbeat!

The Comicon was good. A lot of similar merch by different vendors. The Phelps brothers are perfect gentlemen and give a bit of themselves to each fan plunking down money to have a pic with them. Theu were definitely the highlight of the show. Tom Holland's panel was much fun too. He seems to be a humble person who enjoys his fans as much as they enjoy him.

Hosted great event.

Hosted great event.

Minor issues with efficient lines to get in the doors. Waited all the way around the building for an event while other people were cutting and going directly in.

It's pretty easy to get to. There are plenty of bathrooms. There's also a small elevator if needed. Concessions are outrageously priced. Walk across the street to Reading Terminal Market for food.

Great lace for meetings. Well eqipped technology and facilities. Just wish there were more access to coffee! There are 2 shops inside but the lines! Going outside to get coffee is not difficult though.
