Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I visited here for the NAMM show. The center is very clean modern and large!! There are so many floors and meeting space that it is amazing. I was here with thousands of people, exhibits and equipment and the convention center had no problem facilitating it. It just need more parking because the lot got filled up pretty quickly.

Enjoying the NAMM show in the expanded convention center was exciting. There is quite a bit more exhibit space in a modern setting. I think they could add additional bathrooms and try to improve the transportation to and from. Anaheim around the convention center and Disney can be frustrating to trravel around

Nice hotel with decent options for food - could use a few more but with 9 family members and 4 rooms we were never really bored. Close to all types of restaurants nearby -walking distance! Disney is big attraction as well. Gym was in remodeling phase which was disappointing. Beautiful views of plam trees and snow capped mountains!

This is a very well-kept and run convention center. The place is very well situated very close to Disneyland, and surrounded by very good restaurants and hotels which are easy to get to within a short walk. We stayed at the Sheraton hotel, which was simply a block away. The facilities are very well-kept and overall the size of the venue to the size of our meeting was absolutely perfect. This is definitely an excellent choice for conventions of under 10,000 people.

We stayed three nights to go to Anaheim at Disneyland!
There was no bathing boat, but the beds were easy to sleep in, and there were plenty of refrigerators, TVs and amenities!
We had a lot of luggage, so it was hard to take suitcases upstairs.
The receptionist was kind enough to lend us a wine opener in his poor English, and to keep our mobile phones on Uber!
Thank you so much for your support!

Recently attended the Heli-Expo. I can’t speak for the parking because the whole venue is so accessible by walking or shuttle. Very accommodating. Nice engaging staff. Decent meal choices available onsite. So convenient to sooooo many hotels.

Were there for a Star Wars Celebration and had a wonderful time. The staff running the facility were very nice. The staff cleaning the facilities , serving food and security were all very helpful, attentive and genuine. We felt that really added to our positive experience for our event!

In April 2024 - I've attended IPC APEX 2024 that was hosted this year - and will be for next few years - by the Anaheim Convention center.
The building of the convention center is huge - by any standard - is one of the biggest I've seen in the past years - while participating to different events in the US.
Around the place - should you like in the campus - there are plenty of hotel choices - some of those literarily just 5-10 min walking distance from the spot.
The building is a steel and glass kind of construction, functional with thousands of rooms - bigger or smaller - and can host several events in parallel.
Lighting , aircon and sound system in the meeting rooms is also very good .
Escalators always working - although I was taking the stairs typically - however in terms of accessibility it is no problem.
In terms of restaurants - in the area around the convention you've got options - and based on what I saw over the week I've spent there - for lunch there are typically food trucks , either in front of the convention center either near Anaheim arena- closer to the Katella Ave.
Overall a very good venue - should you plan to attend an event there and you have doubts , don't have any the place is definitely up to hosting any kind of conventions, trade show, etc.

Conveniently, there's a food court inside the convention center (actually I think its in the bowels of the Hilton) but its right across the fountain from the convention center and there's a grill place, a Baja Fresh, a pizza place and a starbucks. In case you're perishing at a convention there on grapes and cheese cubes, run over to the food court and grab some hot (albeit pricey--think airport priced) food.

Can someone please explain where the will call booth is?
Written 5 January 2019
The will call for the Arena at the Anaheim Convention Center is located at the Arena right off of Katella, you can see it from the sidewalk. The Arena is different then the rest of the Convention Center, it has a rounded egg shaped roof. The Arena is located between North Hall (the newest hall) and A Hall. A Hall actually is attached to the Arena. Easily accessable from Katella off the sidewalk out front of the Anaheim Convention Center. There are 3 windows there with little talk thru circle voice boxes. Each window has a little circle vent for you to talk thru. That is the Will Call. Look up and you will notice that the roof of the Arena is different then the rest of the place. The Arena has been there and was built first before the convention center. If your walking down Katella you can see it from the sidewalk. Last I checked that is where it has always been. The side walk has a passage way right to it, its all cement and it faces Katella. The windows face Katella off to the side a bit. 1/2 way between Harbor and West aka Disneyland Way. On Katella facing the street - Katella.

Where can we park for "free" and walk (a "short" walk) to the convention center to just be there for about 1.5 hours ( just wanna buy something at a booth there)?
Written 15 October 2017
There is no where to park that is free unless you staying at one of the hotels then you get to park at the hotel for free. Anywhere else is strictly prohibited without a permit and you have to live there to get one of those. Don't park across the street in back because they show up in less then 15 mins to tow you away. Those people will not put up with it and I dont blame them. It's got to be really bad living across the street from there.

How did you get from the airport to the convention center?
Written 8 February 2017
I think the parking rate is $9-$10 per day but they might have less for a few hours parking.
