I found it fairly easy finding parking and the facilities were great. A few more eateries in close range would have been good.

The event was OK not the greatest not the best it was just OK it was for September 17 my complaint is I have a disability guys don’t have very much availability for people that has a disability you got stairs a lot of stairs not very many handicap places to sit the bathrooms were outrageous two one side and two on the other side I’m talking about women’s bathrooms they’re outdated you all just need to do a whole new redo on the whole convention center and make it accessible for handicap after all these years I thought you guys were upgrade this is my only bad review then I’m given the Fresno convention center it is not accessible for handicap or for the disability..

The convention center itself was nice. Getting there and the homeless around the convention center, not so much. The food options inside are for those with iron stomachs, but if you go with a full tummy, it is a pleasant place to be.

I have always loved their Convention Center here in Fresno. Its a great place to go see about anything you want to see concerts and special visits like from the ice skating arena and such. I just stopped in there about eight months ago to check and see on what was coming up for the next 6 months there and what kind of criteria were they expecting to have in the rock bands or any other bands that might play at the convention center. Its a great place to do business I can hardly remember stopping in there but I do remember take care give it a shot you might find something there you want to see our go to

Ive seen concerts,sporting events,and been to special events here. Its a nice place and perfect for concerts. Parking is ok if you get there early to get one. If not have some walking shoes. Stores around it to go and get gas and snacks there. They have great staff there for events,never have had a issue with anything from lines getting in the doors to getting some food or drinks.

Love this convention center. I have been here for about 3 shows or so in the last few years and everytime is great. The location feels secure and safe, even in regards to where it is located. They also have the BEST cookies if you have time for a snack!Side note, be sure to check that your purse is within regulation size before leaving home because they will have you go put it in your car.

Easy to get to. Plenty of parking($). They check bags and dont allow outside food or drink.We were here to see The Lion King. Amazing show the venue was clean, seats are comfy, bathrooms can get crowded at intermission. Upper balcony first row seating look great when purchasing your tickets but there is a railing that runs along your eye line when seated if youre not taller than 57.

They rent the place out for a private event that is not open to the public and they want to run security check and restrictions like its there event and its open go the public. They need to let the private party non open to the public events be managed by themselves unless they are asked for assistance. The didnt comply with their own rules, witch was good for us. Because we were able to almost save our private event.

Here for a conference and their rooms are not well ventilated at all!! Its nice overall and roomy, but our company put up the room dividers and packed 50 people into each space! It was too packed and the lack of cool air made it suck! The bathrooms didnt have any sort of air filters, each toilet didnt have any sort flushable clean spray to avoid bad smells between patrons.

Security did not know how control a rowdy crowd. I felt unsafe and uncomfortable. Probably will not go back. Venue was nice looking and seating was comfortable. Staff were unhelpful and it was difficult to find my seat. They dont guide you when you come in.

They come to perform against other tribes every Christmas & New Years its beautiful to see. The little bitty ones go out to perform too as well as the younger to older elders. To me its better than going to the circus, the Pow Wows bring things to sale like Blankets, Jewelery, T- shirts, Indian Tacos those are delicious I cant wait forThem to come...

Good place for an event. Parking it close and there is plenty of room. You might be able to find street parking but be careful there is a lot of street signs and restrictions on parking on the street, like time limits etx. Location is pretty close to the freeway and very easy to find, but didnt find a lot of choices to eat nearby during the weekend since its a downtown area alot is closed.

Downtown Fresno. Many events are held here throughout the year. The city is dormant on weekends. There are a few hot spots in the area that are walkable: Grizzly stadium, Tioga-Sequoia brewery, Fulton Mall Strip to make a few.

I have attended several events at the Fresno Convention & Entertainment Center. The staff working here are very professional, get people admitted efficiently, and always polite. After each event, we always stay around the parking lot until most of the people cleared the parking lot. Too much congestion to attempt leaving with the crowd.

It seems that all convention center have a mandatory way of hiring unhappy employees. Or its part of their training? From the ticket counter to the entrance, to the snack bar.This place is crazy out dated but well put together.

Small compared to other convention centers, and parking is somewhat difficult. Fortunately we were there for a relatively small event (graduation) so it wasnt too bad. Otherwise on par with other similarly purposed convention centers.

Its a convention center. Generally well-kept and maintained with a mix of exhibit halls and conference rooms. Being downtown Fresno is probably the biggest downside.

Review №88

Its not a bad place, but starting to get a bit run down. Bathrooms are inadequate. They have security but not very good security. Before entering they ask you to empty all of your pockets, but they dont know what they are looking for. They say no weapons but I brought in my knife which I showed them when I checked in for our event.

The venue here is decent but the vagrants in the area are prevalent, and they wont hesitate to break your car windows or vandalize your vehicle for something as little as a car charger. This happened to me in the paid parking area for the convention center. Beware!
