Know Before You Go

We recommend leaving ample time for parking. The 3rd Avenue Ramp can fill up quickly with graduations. View our parking page for additional options.

Public Event Parking

We've partnered with four City of Minneapolis parking ramps to increase attendee options & streamline guest services

Skyway System

The Skyway System is a convenient way for you to connect to the MCC building, restaurants & hotels, all while staying indoors

Accessibility

The goal of MCC’s accessible design is to provide equal use of the building for all people including those who use wheelchairs, canes, mobility scooters and those with vision and hearing impairments. Specifically, the facility includes locations for easy curbside drop-off along 2nd Ave., automatic building entrances, automatic 3rd Ave. Parking Ramp doors, power assist doors, and wheelchair-accessible elevators and bathrooms.

Guest Services and Security

At the Minneapolis Convention Center, we believe the great experience you provide in your events should be extended to attendees even after the meeting is done. That's why we offer high-quality services to ensure your attendees make the best of their experience in Minneapolis.
