About Red Lion Hotel Woodlake Conference Center
The Red Lion Hotel Woodlake Conference Center in Sacramento has a rich history as a hotel and conference hub, now redeveloped into the Leisure Lane Apartments project at 500 Leisure Lane. While the site itself has been demolished, the legacy of its large-scale event spaces and notable performances remains a reference point for planning in the North Sacramento area. This guide provides essential details for event organizers, locals, and visitors: seating configurations, parking options, transportation options, and nearby hotel and dining recommendations you can rely on through our trusted network.
Key facts: the venue offered about 50,000–60,000 square feet of conference facilities with capacity up to around 2,000 attendees. It hosted notable acts such as Count Basie (1972) and Chris Isaak (2016). The site was closed in December 2016 and demolished in 2017 as redevelopment progressed into the Leisure Lane Apartments project. For contemporary stays and services nearby, we point to current partner recommendations and practical insights for accessing the North Sacramento area today.
