The success of your meeting is measured only by the pounds of the bag your attendees carry. Literature. Plastic goods. T-shirts. Fill ’em up. Then move ’em out — with the bag dragging behind them, of course. At the Myrtle Beach Convention Center, we only have one rule. Host great meetings. And we do. Our amazing facilities provide everything you need during the convention, and the pristine beaches and world-class golf offer endless opportunities for fun when it's over. No hassle. No worry. No excess baggage. A FACILITY OF THE CITY OF MYRTLE BEACH Break with convention.
