Two large fully equipped theaters, a press room, plush executive board rooms and superior food service facilities are among the many features which distinguish the Hawai i Convention Center. The 200,000 square-foot ground floor exhibition hall is located just beyond the Center s main entry and registration lobby, to maximize its accessibility to delegates and exhibitors. The entire hall can be dedicated to a single purpose. Or, it can be divided to host two or three different groups simultaneously. When configured for two or three exhibits, each room has its own access to the registration lobby and truck bays.
Trucks are able to drive directly onto the exhibit floor for faster loading and unloading.
Each hall is equipped with a show manager s office, which overlooks the show floor. The second floor garage has 700 parking stalls. Two entrances and exits on Kahakai Street and an extra exit onto Kalakaua Avenue speed up departures at the conclusion of an event. There is a special drop-off area for taxi cabs and small buses located near the registration lobby. And, a driveway crosses the second level of the grand staircase by the Ala Wai Promenade where VIPs can arrive in style.
