About Saint Paul RiverCentre

Saint Paul RiverCentre is a multi-purpose convention and exhibition venue located at 175 W Kellogg Blvd in downtown Saint Paul, Minnesota. The current convention center opened in 1998 as the successor to the original St. Paul Civic Center complex on the site. It is owned by the City of Saint Paul and Ramsey County and is operated as part of the broader Saint Paul RiverCentre complex alongside Xcel Energy Center and Roy Wilkins Auditorium.

The venue’s capacity varies by event configuration, with more than 150,000 square feet of exhibit space plus a ballroom and meeting rooms that can accommodate thousands depending on setup. Its flexible layout supports conventions, trade shows, consumer expos, conferences, banquets, graduations, meetings, and public ticketed events. Because it is physically connected to Xcel Energy Center and Roy Wilkins Auditorium, Saint Paul RiverCentre functions as a central piece of downtown Saint Paul’s events district.

Its Mississippi River waterfront location, indoor skyway access, exhibit halls, ballroom, and meeting spaces make Saint Paul RiverCentre one of the region’s primary convention and exhibition facilities.

Location & Transportation

Saint Paul RiverCentre is located at 175 W Kellogg Blvd, Saint Paul, MN 55102 — on the Mississippi River waterfront in downtown Saint Paul and directly connected to Xcel Energy Center, Roy Wilkins Auditorium, and the downtown skyway system.

Transit: Metro Transit bus routes serve downtown Saint Paul, and the METRO Green Line light rail runs through downtown with stations within walking distance of the venue. Transit is a practical option for reaching Saint Paul RiverCentre, especially when downtown traffic and parking demand increase around major events.

Driving and Parking: Parking is available in the RiverCentre parking ramp, with additional ramps and lots throughout downtown Saint Paul. During large simultaneous events at the connected Xcel Energy Center, downtown ramps and lots can fill quickly, so arriving early gives you more options and a smoother walk to the venue.

Rideshare: Rideshare drop-off and pickup are available along Kellogg Boulevard and nearby downtown streets. When major events let out at the adjacent arena, expect heavier traffic and longer post-event wait times in the surrounding downtown blocks.

Nearby Accommodation: Several downtown Saint Paul hotels are within walking distance of Saint Paul RiverCentre, including properties connected to or near the skyway system. Staying downtown can make it easier to reach the venue with covered pedestrian access during Minnesota’s colder months.

Venue Navigation

Saint Paul RiverCentre uses a flexible convention-center layout, so the exact hall, room, or event setup can change from one event to the next. Understanding the building’s connection points, skyway access, and event signage before arrival helps make large expos and ticketed shows easier to navigate.

Entrances and Access: The main entrance is off West Kellogg Boulevard. Saint Paul RiverCentre is also connected to Xcel Energy Center, Roy Wilkins Auditorium, and the downtown skyway system, giving guests indoor access between buildings in the connected events complex.

Concourse Levels: The facility includes ground-level exhibit halls, a ballroom, and multiple meeting rooms across the venue. Layouts are reconfigured by event, so conventions, expos, banquets, and public shows can use different combinations of halls and rooms.

Accessibility: ADA-accessible entrances, restrooms, and accessible parking are available as part of the downtown complex’s accessible facilities.

Getting to Your Section: Event signage and venue staff direct attendees to specific halls and rooms. Skyway connections are especially helpful in cold weather, and larger events may require a longer indoor walk between parking, the skyway, and the assigned hall.

Dining Options

Inside Saint Paul RiverCentre

Concessions and catering services are available depending on the event. Full catering is offered for conventions and banquets, while public shows and ticketed events may use concessions or event-specific food service based on the setup.

Outside the Venue — Downtown Saint Paul

Downtown Saint Paul offers dining within walking distance of the venue, including restaurants near Rice Park, the West 7th Street corridor, and skyway-connected eateries. The surrounding downtown area is especially convenient for pre-event meals when guests want to stay close to the RiverCentre complex.

Security & Policies

Saint Paul RiverCentre 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. Larger ticketed events typically include bag checks and may impose size limits, so bringing a smaller bag can help speed entry.

Commonly Prohibited Items: Weapons, outside food and drink, and other items specified for the event are typically restricted. Items deemed a safety risk may also be refused at entry.

Re-Entry: Re-entry varies by event, and event-specific rules are shown on the event listing.

How Much Do Tickets to Saint Paul RiverCentre Cost?

Saint Paul RiverCentre ticket prices vary widely depending on the type of event, promoter pricing, access type, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from public consumer expos to special ticketed events and conferences.

Consumer shows and expos often have low entry prices, with tickets roughly in the $10–$30 range. These events are commonly priced for general admission or exhibit-floor access, making them accessible options for guests attending public shows at the venue.

Special ticketed events and conferences can vary widely by event. Pricing depends on the event format, promoter pricing, demand, and whether admission includes standard entry, premium access, conference programming, or other event-specific benefits.

Buying earlier generally provides better availability for in-demand events. As inventory tightens and the event date approaches, the best-value options can disappear first, especially for popular public shows and special ticketed events.

Saint Paul RiverCentre Seating Guide

Saint Paul RiverCentre uses flexible event layouts, so the experience can change based on whether the event is a consumer expo, conference, banquet, graduation, public show, or special ticketed production. Many events use general admission or exhibit-floor access, while others may include event-specific seating or room arrangements.

Best Seats at Saint Paul RiverCentre

  • Best value: General admission or exhibit-floor access can be a strong value when offered, especially for consumer shows and expos where guests move throughout the event space.
  • Closest to the action: For events configured with a stage or presentation area, front-of-room or stage-adjacent locations provide the closest view of the program.
  • Best overall experience: Central floor areas or assigned seats near the middle of the room can offer a balanced view, easier movement, and a comfortable connection to the event atmosphere.
  • General admission: Many events at Saint Paul RiverCentre are general admission or exhibit-floor access rather than reserved seating, depending on the event.

Saint Paul RiverCentre Seating Chart

You can view an interactive seating map for Saint Paul RiverCentre 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?

Getting Ready for Your Saint Paul RiverCentre Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a connected downtown convention center where event layouts, parking demand, and skyway access can shape the experience.

  • Download your tickets before you leave. 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. Arrive early when RiverCentre events coincide with Xcel Energy Center events, as downtown parking fills and traffic increases.
  • Wear the right footwear. Saint Paul RiverCentre is primarily flat, indoor, and climate-controlled, but larger shows can involve plenty of walking across exhibit halls, so comfortable shoes are a smart choice.
  • Dress in layers. The venue is indoors, and skyway access allows covered movement in Minnesota’s cold winters, which can make your route from hotel, parking, or dining easier to manage.
  • Build extra time into your transit plan. Downtown traffic and parking demand can increase when events overlap at the connected arena, so give yourself additional time before the posted start time.
  • Know your entrance. For larger events across the connected complex, your ticket or event listing points you to the right building, hall, or room before you arrive.
  • Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
