Pennsylvania Convention Center Authority Reviews

They really need to do something about the facilities. They're almost all broken and they look like they're from the 70s

Planning is too leaner. To go to different seminars you've to walk a looooott. It's tiresome.

Older property. A big plus having police substation on property and Reading Terminal across the street for amazing food options.

One of the best convention centers I have been to this far.

Went to car show!! To may kids sitting in the front seat abusing the cars with parents and grandparents looking on! Other than that car show great!

Very impressed with Philly and the area around the convention center and old city.

Standard convention center, but great upkeep and cleanliness. Coffee bar closes a bit earlier than you'd expect, but otherwise great!

Nice place but parking in the nearby lot wasn't so cheap $25

I go every year to the car show and tattoo convention!!

This is a great facility and you can tell there have been some upgrades. I attended the women's conference here in October where the keynote speakers were Amal Clooney and Serena Williams. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because there are not enough restrooms to accommodate whatever percentage of 10000 women trying to use the restroom. By the afternoon the stalls didn't have toilet paper and eventually the paper towels ran out as well. The food was pretty good at the catered luncheon-not sure if that was an outside caterer. The security screening was a tiny bit confusing because I was able to enter behind security. Regardless, it was a nice day and I'm looking forward to next year's conference.

Accommodates large amounts of people. Holds great conventions. Close to many tasty restaurants.

Every year philly gets shafted on the all the cars but keep increasing the price.. Ill wait for NYC Car show from now on

Huge venue for major events and shows, covering 3+ city blocks (11th Street to Broad).

Great venue. Saw the Philadelphia Flower Show here. Easy to get to and in a nice area of the city.

Beautiful convention center located in the heart of historic Philly near many wonderful hotels.
My advice ... pay for long term parking one of the many parking garages. You can walk to the wonderful markets and historical landmarks take an Uber to one of the many fine restaurants.

good access to the reading market, but looks a little dated.

Very nice well kept place...I would of given a "five" but you food price are ridiculous

Yes indeed, this place is amazing! You're going to have a one of a kind experience here if you ever go here for any event. From the flower show, to the tech shows etc. A one of a kind place and great atmosphere.

Easy to get to, clean, and always have great events

Great convention space, good size with multiple different sized meeting rooms.

Anyone who loves history this is the place to rather that knowledge from the past to the present.

I could hardly believe how beautiful everything was. The show was well supervised .

Philadelphia flower show, 2017.
Well done, clean place, friendly staff.
Parking was conveniently close.
A good experience.

Attended the Tattoo Convention just yesterday. Great experience. I wish I had gotten a tattoo lol

Not enough displays.. not one seat for elderly people to rest. I will not be going again.

Amazing I couldn't believe how big that building was ,very clean and nice people there helping you find your way

Great and large venue for many attractions (I ve been there for the car shape many years). Every time I show back up the place feels fresh, has food joints all around it and you never have to be shoulder to shoulder with the people next to you.

Centrally locates in the city, very well connected by public transport..

The car show here is always great. Food prices are a bit much but that's to be expected.

Nice convention center. This place is huge but there are many people to direct you to the right location. Close to places to eat and right downtown.

It was so many vehicles to see ! the staff did a outstanding job ! Convention Center crew keep up the good work !

Nice venue connected to the Reading Terminal and Marriott Hotel. Very convenient for our event!!

Lots of homeless people live here on the street level. They really need to clean the streets and the sidewalks as people use it for a bathroom. Yuck.

Good food, even when busy, staff was courteous and effecient.

Went for the Dinosaur Time Trek event. It was a great time with the family.

PHILLY AUTO SHOW YALL! Had fun wearing our feet out walking around looking at all the new models! The HYPERCARS were the best, with a ride in the new Jeep Gladiator Rubicon over the obstacle course a close second!

We had a wonderful time at the 2015 Flower Show. Gorgeous flowers and plants displayed beautifully. Hardscaping exhibits that make you want to redo your backyard before summer! Amazing bonsai demonstration. We also spent time in the butterfly room, which was a perfect conclusion for our visit.

Slowly slipping away, definitely not maintaining it well

Big place but liked the connectivity with th ed marriot hotel.

The place itself is great, it's the traffic around the place to get there that sucks.

I enjoyed attending ISTE 2019 there.

The facilities are expansive. It is kept clean.
The security helped with the flow of people.
The gift shop and the food are excellent.

You have the option of using the stairs, escalators or elevators. Great accessibility.

Kinda confusing to get a around and no good maps in the building

Wonders of Water - Theme for 2018 Philadelphia flower show. A bit crowded, expected, but worth the time and effort.

Car show is NOTHING like it used to be at all...I've lost all interest in going anymore

Cool building and nice location. Walking out the "front doors" (if you can figure out where the front is!) you immediately see some cool art. The staff here was not very helpful at all though. The convention center is made up of 3ish buildings and I was there for a pretty main event and Convention staff really did not help direct me towards the correct building or doorway.

808 this and an 808 that. Surprisingly awesome concert venue

Auto show was awsome we go every year cant wait till next years event

Hanging out with my son at the Pennsylvani a Convention Center and we ran into Hollywood celebrity/actor John Glover! You never know who you'll run onto in Philadelphia!

Great experience and very easy to get lost.
They have a lot of events here as well.
Totally recommend people seeing what's new here on their website.....new events meet people have a good time ......this place is big

PAX Unplugged was off the chain and this convention hall is a perfect place for it. My only criticism is offering more food and beverage choices in the main halls.

Went to the auto show 2017. Great setup and the place was clean. Snacks were expensive though, of course.

One if the nicest convention centers in the country.

This was my first time at this convention and all I can say is wow, it really blew me away, the way all the people involved were so helpful. One thing I believe in is if I'm (standing) in line for an autograph and someone is in a wheel chair that person goes before me, always.

Auto show was a blast this year! Got to see the Mystery Machine and KITT
