In selecting the top ten centers from among the hundreds of convention centers nationwide, Business Review USA specifically cited the San Diego Convention Center's ability to offer convention-goers a unique conference experience.

"Nothing makes us happier than seeing our clients succeed and to see the San Diego Convention Center named as one of the top ten convention venues in the country," says said Nancy Murgillo, Centerplate's General Manager at the convention center. "Our sole focus coming to work every day is helping our clients achieve their goals and objectives, so this top ten recognition means a great deal to the entire Centerplate team."

This award adds to the long list of recognition the center has received in recent years including multiple Prime Site Awards from Facilities and Destinations magazine, Best Convention Center by Southern California meetings and Events magazine, and the Inner Circle Awards from Association Meetings magazine.
