Trade & Consumer Shows
Those who plan exhibitions large and small have found that both the city of Collinsville and Gateway Center accommodate their gatherings in more ways than one. Whether it’s the 50,000 square feet of flexible exhibition and meeting space, the modern technology and amenities, or the convenient access to five major interstate highways, these are just some of the reasons consumer and trade shows choose us time and time again.
Great events start with Gateway Center, a contemporary, well-appointed convention facility. The 40,000 square feet of contiguous space accommodates crowd flow so your vendors receive maximum exposure. Additional space is available for seminars or more vendors. Ample free parking, a population of 2.5 million located within one hour’s drive, and access to media, attendees and corporations in a major metropolitan market ensure your business-to-business or consumer event has the financial potential you seek.
Because our staff can handle your requirements with efficient planning and extensive resources, your budget dollars are maximized, leaving more for promotion, programming or profits.
Vendors who require sleeping rooms will find a choice of accessible lodging within walking distance of the convention center. They can select from economy to full-service properties, with a variety of price ranges and amenities.
We recognize that your show is more than pipe, drape and vendors. We provide a convenient location with the support services and affordable amenities you need to put on a successful, well-attended event.
Come see why Collinsville is the great place to gather for exhibitions!
