About Three Rivers Convention Center

Three Rivers Convention Center is a multi-purpose convention and meeting facility located at 7016 W Grandridge Blvd in Kennewick, Washington. Opened in 2004, it is owned by the Tri-Cities Public Facilities District and managed by VenuWorks, the same company that operates the adjacent Toyota Center. The venue offers approximately 75,000 square feet of flexible event space, with capacity varying by setup and the Great Hall accommodating several thousand guests for banquets, expos, and seated events.

The convention center is regarded as the premier convention and large-gathering facility in the Tri-Cities region of southeastern Washington, drawing events from across the Columbia Basin. Its event mix includes conventions, trade shows, expos, corporate meetings, conferences, banquets, community galas, seasonal events, concerts, comedy, and performances presented in seated or ballroom configurations.

A major expansion with a guaranteed maximum cost of $71.3 million is scheduled to open December 4, 2026, significantly enlarging the facility’s exhibition and meeting footprint. Three Rivers Convention Center is known for its large divisible halls, meeting rooms, pre-function spaces, and its role as a flexible event hub within the Columbia Center district.

Location & Transportation

Three Rivers Convention Center is located at 7016 W Grandridge Blvd, Kennewick, WA 99336 — in the Columbia Center commercial and hospitality district near surrounding retail, dining, hotels, and the adjacent Toyota Center.

Driving and Parking: The area is car-oriented, and driving is the primary option for many attendees. The venue is easily accessible from Interstate 82 and U.S. 395, with ample on-site and adjacent surface parking shared with the surrounding Columbia Center retail district. Parking is generally free, though large public events can draw heavier traffic and fill nearby lots faster.

Transit: Three Rivers Convention Center is served by Ben Franklin Transit, the regional bus system for the Tri-Cities. Transit is available, but it is secondary for most attendees because the surrounding Columbia Center area is built around vehicle access.

Rideshare: Uber and Lyft operate in the Tri-Cities, and rideshare drop-off and pickup are straightforward thanks to surface-level entrances and ample curb space. After larger events, building in extra time for pickup can make departure smoother.

Nearby Accommodation: Numerous hotels cluster in the Columbia Center and Grandridge Boulevard area immediately around the venue. Staying nearby can make it easy to walk or take a short drive to the convention center, especially for multi-day conferences, expos, and banquet events.

Venue Navigation

Three Rivers Convention Center has a practical, single-level layout built around lobby and pre-function areas that lead into the Great Hall, additional meeting rooms, and flexible event spaces. Because seating, tables, registration areas, and expo layouts change by event, reading signage and giving yourself a few extra minutes on arrival helps you move efficiently.

Entrances and Access: Ground-level main entrances open into lobby and pre-function areas, with access continuing into the halls and meeting rooms. The surface-level setup keeps arrival simple for conventions, galas, performances, and public expos.

Concourse Levels: The convention center is primarily a single-floor facility. Its layout centers on a large divisible main hall known as the Great Hall, supported by meeting rooms and lobby spaces that can be arranged differently from event to event.

Accessibility: As a modern facility, Three Rivers Convention Center provides ADA-accessible entrances, restrooms, and parking. The single-level design also supports easier mobility throughout the building.

Getting to Your Section: Open hall layouts use event-specific signage and staff direction. Seating arrangements, table assignments, registration desks, booths, and stage placement vary by setup, so following posted signs when you arrive is the best way to reach the right area quickly.

How Much Do Tickets to Three Rivers Convention Center Cost?

Three Rivers Convention Center ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the performer or program, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from community expos and seasonal events to galas, banquets, and ticketed performances.

Community events, seasonal gatherings, and expos can often range from free admission to low-cost or modest admission, depending on the organizer, program, and whether the event includes special activities, displays, or premium access.

Banquets, galas, and ticketed performances typically fall into a mid-range pricing pattern, with cost shaped by the event format, entertainment, table or reserved seating arrangements, and the overall demand for the program.

For popular seasonal and ticketed events, buying earlier generally secures better availability. As inventory shrinks and the event date approaches, the best remaining seats, tables, or admission options can become harder to find.

Three Rivers Convention Center Seating Guide

Three Rivers Convention Center uses flexible floor-based configurations, so the best seat depends heavily on the event setup. Banquet rounds, theater-style rows, classroom layouts, open expo floors, and general admission arrangements can all shape how close you are to the stage and how the room feels.

Best Seats at Three Rivers Convention Center

• Best value: General admission or standard event seating can be a strong value when available, especially for expos, community events, and open-floor gatherings where arrival time and event layout shape the experience.
• Closest to the action: For seated performances, theater-style rows nearest the stage offer the most direct proximity to the performance.
• Best overall experience: Mid-room seating in a theater-style or banquet setup can provide a balanced view of the stage while keeping you close to the energy of the event.
• Premium and suite options: Large divisible hall space is well suited to group banquets, galas, corporate events, and table-based functions where groups can sit together.
• For groups: Coordinating tickets early is especially helpful for banquets, galas, conferences, and seated performances where table placement or contiguous seating matters.
• General admission: Many events use general admission or open-floor seating depending on the configuration, giving attendees flexibility to move through the room, expo floor, or event space.

Can I See Where My Seats Are?

Getting Ready for Your Three Rivers Convention Center Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at a flexible convention facility where parking, entry points, and room layouts can shift by event.

• 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. For large public events, arrive with extra time because parking can fill with traffic from the surrounding retail district, even though the area is easily reached from I-82 and US-395.
• Wear the right footwear. The facility has a single-level, flat interior with easy walking and minimal stairs, making it comfortable for conferences, expos, and events that involve moving between rooms.
• Dress in layers. Three Rivers Convention Center is an indoor, climate-controlled facility, but Tri-Cities summers can be very hot and winters can be cold, so dress for the walk from parking as well as the time indoors.
• Build extra time into your transit plan. The Columbia Center area is car-oriented, and large events can create busier traffic and parking conditions around Grandridge Boulevard.
• Know your entrance. Follow event signage when you arrive, as specific halls and entrances are assigned per event.
• Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
