Las Vegas Conventions information

By Zeke Quezada, About.com

According to the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority: In 2002, more than 5 million convention and trade show delegates traveled to Las Vegas, generating $5.9 billion in non-gaming revenue. Las Vegas hosts a large percentage of Tradeshow Week's top 200 largest conventions and rents more convention space than any other U.S. city.

Currently, Las Vegas has 9 million square feet of convention and meeting space, including the Las Vegas Convention Center's recent South Hall expansion. Additional available convention space significantly increased in 2003 thanks to the opening of Mandalay Bay's 1.5 million-square-foot conference center.
