Cobo Center.
Welcome to Detroit and our main conference venue, Cobo Center!
Located along the restored Detroit International Riverfront, Cobo Center is one of the largest and most technologically advanced convention centers in the nation. A $279 million renovation completed in December 2015 provided unique features such as digital signage and a wireless network designed to accommodate 32,000 devices simultaneously.
Described as America’s Comeback City, Detroit’s revitalized downtown offers a diverse, attractive location with world-class arts, culture, and recreation opportunities. Its location on the Detroit River between Lake Erie and Lake St. Clair makes it an ideal place to celebrate 60 years of Great Lakes research.
