Charlotte is typically thought of as a town of traditional values, beautiful restored homes, and a colorful history which is proudly displayed. However, one look at the Charlotte Convention Center gives visitors a glance at the town's modern, sophisticated future. A breath of chic air in an older town, the Convention Center — which opened in 1995 — hosts theatre-style conferences, banquets, trade shows, conventions, and more. Soft lines and graceful arched entrances make it one of the most attractive newer buildings in Charlotte!
