An online trade publication has ranked the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) in Orlando as the number one convention center in the Unites States. Business Review USA made the announcement after comparing the size, capacity, locations and costs of convention centers across the county.

OCCC was selected as the top convention center because of the significant economic impact the facility brings to the community, which amounts to $87.50 in estimated tax savings to each Orange County household every year. The article also highlights the OCCC amenities which include full-service restaurants, food courts, remote airline check-in and on-site massage services.

"It’s an honor being chosen as the best convention facility," said Kathie Canning, deputy general manager, Orange County Convention Center. "We’re fortunate to have talented, hard-working employees and partners that deserve the credit for this award. Going above and beyond expectations is our goal for each and every event." "It is also a signal to the trade-show industry that Orlando is a leader in the convention market and will be as further improvements transpire in and around the convention center."
