About Anaheim Convention Center

Anaheim Convention Center opened in 1967 and has expanded multiple times, including the seven-story ACC North expansion completed in 2017. Owned by the City of Anaheim and operated by the City of Anaheim Convention, Sports & Entertainment department, the venue includes more than 1.8 million total square feet of function space and more than 1 million square feet of exhibit space. Its arena seats approximately 7,500 to 9,100 guests depending on configuration, while the wider campus serves major conventions, trade shows, exhibitions, and ticketed events.

Recognized as the largest exhibition facility on the West Coast, Anaheim Convention Center is one of the premier convention destinations in the United States. Its event calendar has included longstanding major conventions such as VidCon, WonderCon, BlizzCon, NAMM Show, and Natural Products Expo West, along with concerts, esports, boxing, wrestling, graduations, and large corporate and community gatherings.

The venue is known for its palm-tree-lined campus, distinctive arched arena structure, outdoor plaza areas, and modern glass-walled ACC North expansion in the Anaheim Resort district.

Location & Transportation

Anaheim Convention Center is located at 800 West Katella Avenue, Anaheim, CA 92802 — in the Anaheim Resort district near the Disneyland Resort, major hotels, Katella Avenue, and Harbor Boulevard.

Driving and Parking: On-site parking is available in the convention center structures and lots, with event parking typically in the $20–$30 range. The venue is directly accessible from I-5, the Santa Ana Freeway, and SR-57. For major conventions, lots can fill, so arriving early gives you more time to park, reach the right hall, and get through registration or entry.

Transit: Anaheim Convention Center is served by the Anaheim Resort Transportation shuttle system, which connects area hotels, the convention center, and nearby attractions. OCTA bus routes run along Katella Avenue and Harbor Boulevard. The Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center, served by Metrolink and Amtrak, is a short rideshare or shuttle trip from the venue.

Rideshare: Uber and Lyft operate with designated drop-off and pickup zones at the convention center. During the exit rush after major conventions and large events, expect congestion and longer waits.

Nearby Accommodation: Lodging is extensive throughout the Anaheim Resort district, with many hotels within walking distance. Nearby options include Anaheim Marriott, Hilton Anaheim, Sheraton Park Hotel, and numerous hotels along Katella Avenue and Harbor Boulevard near Disneyland.

Venue Navigation

Anaheim Convention Center is a large multi-building campus with lettered exhibit halls, meeting rooms, ballrooms, the arena, plaza areas, and the ACC North expansion. Understanding your event location before arrival helps reduce walking time across the campus and makes it easier to reach the correct hall, arena entrance, registration area, or seating area.

Entrances and Access: Multiple entrances serve Halls A through E, the arena, and ACC North. Guests access these areas from the grand plaza and surrounding campus, with signage directing attendees toward specific halls, registration points, and event spaces.

Concourse Levels: The complex is organized around lettered exhibit halls, meeting rooms, ballrooms, and the arena. ACC North adds multi-level flexible meeting and exhibit space with an atrium, giving larger events room to spread across several levels and areas of the campus.

Accessibility: ADA-accessible entrances, seating, restrooms, and parking are provided throughout Anaheim Convention Center, consistent with a modern public convention facility.

Getting to Your Section: Because the campus is expansive, review your hall, room, or seating assignment before you arrive. Staff and directional signage help guide attendees across the grand plaza, between exhibit halls, and toward the arena or ACC North.

Dining Options

Inside Anaheim Convention Center

Anaheim Convention Center offers multiple concession stands, cafes, and food service points inside during events, with full catering available for applicable gatherings. Alcohol is typically available at applicable events. For large conventions and high-attendance arena shows, planning food breaks away from peak entry times or major session changes can help reduce time spent in lines.

Outside the Venue — Anaheim Resort District

The surrounding Anaheim Resort district offers abundant dining within walking distance. Nearby options include Downtown Disney District restaurants, hotel dining, and numerous restaurants along Katella Avenue and Harbor Boulevard, making it easy to plan a meal before or after an event at Anaheim Convention Center.

Security & Policies

Anaheim Convention Center maintains security and venue policies that are updated regularly and may vary by event. Before attending, reviewing the current policy on the venue's official website is strongly recommended.

Bag Policy: Bag policies vary by event and promoter. Larger conventions and arena shows commonly enforce bag size limits and bag checks, so reviewing the specific event’s guidelines before packing helps prevent entry delays.

Commonly Prohibited Items: Commonly restricted items include weapons, outside food and drink at ticketed arena events, and other items restricted by individual event organizers.

Re-Entry: Re-entry policies are set per event. Many conventions allow re-entry with a valid badge or wristband, while other ticketed events may use different rules shown with the event listing.

Entry Procedures: Expect bag checks and, for some events, metal detection and digital ticket or badge verification. Arriving with a compliant bag and pre-downloaded tickets or badges helps speed entry.

How Much Do Tickets to Anaheim Convention Center Cost?

Anaheim Convention Center ticket prices vary widely depending on the type of event, the artist or event, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from esports and special events to major fan conventions and marquee arena shows.

For conventions and expos, multi-day passes are approximately $40–$300+ depending on the event and pass tier. Single-day, multi-day, and VIP options can all affect the final price, especially for high-demand fan conventions.

For concerts and arena shows, tickets are approximately $40–$150+, with higher prices for premium seating, floor locations, or marquee acts. Lower-bowl and floor areas generally cost more than upper-level arena seating.

For esports and special events, tickets are approximately $30–$100+, with price differences driven by event format, demand, and seat location when the event uses the arena bowl.

For high-demand conventions like VidCon and BlizzCon, passes can sell out well in advance. Buying earlier secures more availability and better pricing, while inventory for the best remaining options can tighten as the event date approaches.

Anaheim Convention Center Seating Guide

Anaheim Convention Center seating depends on the event space and configuration. The arena features a bowl layout with lower and upper seating, while concerts and conventions may add floor seating, standing areas, or flexible layouts inside exhibit halls.

Best Seats at Anaheim Convention Center

• Best value: Upper-level arena seating is typically the most affordable option for ticketed arena events, offering a broad view of the stage at a lower price point.
• Closest to the action: Floor seats or front-of-stage areas, when configured, put you closest to the stage for concerts and live events.
• Best overall experience: Lower-bowl center sections generally offer the strongest balance of sightline, proximity, and atmosphere for arena concerts and events.
• Premium and suite options: Premium floor seating and group blocks are offered for applicable arena events, while exhibit halls are designed to accommodate large group functions.
• For groups: For conventions, graduations, arena shows, and special events with high demand, coordinating seats or passes early gives groups a better chance of staying together.
• General admission: General admission or standing configurations are used for some concerts and convention events, giving attendees flexible positioning within the designated area.

Anaheim Convention Center Seating Chart

You can view an interactive seating map for Anaheim Convention Center events directly on BoxOfficeTicketSales.com while browsing available listings. The map lets you compare sections side by side, check row depth and distance from the stage, and see real-time pricing for what's currently available — all before committing to a purchase.

Can I See Where My Seats Are?

Yes. The interactive seat map on BoxOfficeTicketSales.com shows your exact section and row placement before you buy.

Getting Ready for Your Anaheim Convention Center Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical steps make your visit run significantly smoother — especially across a large convention campus with multiple halls, entrances, and plaza areas.

• Download your tickets before you leave. Large conventions can congest cell networks across the campus. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the entrance without needing a signal.
• Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
• Arrive early. Give yourself extra time for parking fill, registration lines, security, and the walk across the campus during major events.
• Wear the right footwear. Anaheim Convention Center is expansive, with long walks between halls and across the grand plaza. Comfortable shoes make a real difference.
• Dress in layers. Southern California weather is generally mild, interior halls are climate-controlled, and outdoor plaza waits can be warm midday.
• Build extra time into your transit plan. Major events can create delays around parking, registration, and campus movement, so an early arrival window helps keep the day on track.
• Know your entrance. With multiple halls and entrances, reviewing your hall or entrance details before arrival can meaningfully reduce walking and confusion.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
