Ontario, Calif.
GREATER ONTARIO CONVENTION CENTER EXPANSION PROJECT
GOCal: Greater Ontario California
The Greater Ontario Convention Center Expansion Project brings generational change to a civic landmark.
The Greater Ontario California (GOCAL) Convention Center Expansion project will transform the existing building and create a unified campus to solidify its place as a destination within the “Premier City of the Inland Empire”.
The expanded convention center is a manifestation of the city’s continued commitment to the growth and evolution of the area’s economy.
This ambitious project will double the size and event capacity of the current facility and cements its reputation as a premier location for national conferences and conventions.
Industry trends have evolved the need for more—bigger. The project will deliver 450,000 SF of indoor convention center space to serve the ambitions of its clients.
The expansion offers an incredible opportunity to connect the City’s vibrant community and exceptional climate through expanded outdoor events and public spaces. A public street is proposed to be closed to allow the development of a landscaped public plaza.
A new 2,000-vehicle parking structure will ensure ample parking for attendees, while on-site retail will add convenience and enhance the visitor experience.
A pedestrian bridge over Holt Boulevard will improve safety and connectivity within the growing Convention Center District.
This cohesive design enhances an iconic landmark in Ontario and cements the rebirth of a district. Its design celebrates the convergence of people, passion, and cultures of the City and world at-large.
The Ontario Convention Center Expansion project is set for completion in 2027.
