BRINGING EVENTS TO COBB
COBB IS THE SWEET SPOT FOR EVENTS OF ANY SIZE, FROM TRADE SHOWS TO FAMILY REUNIONS. OUR TEAM GOES ABOVE AND BEYOND TO ENSURE EVERY MEETING IS A SUCCESS.
Our professional, group, tradeshow and convention sales team works closely with our meeting and event partners to help find the perfect space to meet each group’s unique needs.
Cobb Galleria Centre, one of our longest standing partners, stands out as
Cobb County’s anchor when it comes to hosting events. When things shut down, they stepped up to be the first convention center in metro Atlanta to reopen. They worked tirelessly to welcome back groups, collaborating with us to help accommodate needs and make people feel comfortable.
We were proud to work with the Cobb Galleria Centre to bring these events to Cobb County:
