About Oakland Convention Center

The Oakland Convention Center sits in the heart of downtown Oakland at 550 10th Street, CA 94607. With roughly 100,566 square feet of flexible event space (in partnership with the adjacent Oakland Marriott City Center), it’s a versatile hub for conventions, large meetings, trade shows, and special events. The center hosts a range of spaces from expansive Exhibit Halls to a grand ballroom, all published with floor plans to help you visualize your setup. We’ve got you with clear, practical details to help you secure your seats and plan logistics with confidence.

When you’re mapping out a visit, consider nearby lodging and dining to keep travel simple. The venue is connected to the Oakland Marriott City Center, and several other hotels are within a short stroll or ride. For attendees and organizers, the area offers restaurants, casual eateries, and coffee shops to suit a variety of event timelines and budgets.

Parking is available in City Center garages with entrances on 14th Street (between 1300 Clay St and 505 14th St) or on 11th Street past Clay. Parking rates reflect typical downtown Oakland pricing and can vary by event. Transit options include direct access to the 12th Street / City Center BART station and connections via Alameda/Oakland Ferry. For planning, consult 511.org for regional transit planning and live updates. Floor plans for the center’s spaces—Exhibit Halls East and West, East 1 and East 2, and the Grand Ballroom—are published to help you design your layout, whether you’re hosting a large convention, a trade show, or a formal banquet.

Recommended nearby hotels include the Oakland Marriott City Center (connected to the venue), Courtyard Oakland Downtown City Center, Moxy on Telegraph, AC Hotel Oakland Downtown, and Residence Inn Berkeley at Cal, among others. We’ve highlighted affiliate partners to help you compare options and secure comfortable stays during your event. If you’re coordinating a multi-day program, treat each date as a standalone booking to simplify planning and ensure availability for your preferred spaces.
