inspiring conventions in downtown providence
The Rhode Island Convention Center is connected via an enclosed skybridge to our downtown Providence hotel, the Dunkin' Donuts Center and the Providence Place Mall.
Located in the heart of downtown Providence, the Rhode Island Convention Center offers over 130,000 square feet of exhibition space, including a 100,000 square foot exhibition hall. However, for groups requiring additional space, flexibility lies with meeting space at adjoining facilities: the Dunkin' Donuts Center and The Westin Providence hotel.
