Planning a successful tradeshow or expo takes more than booking a room. It requires space that can support exhibitors, strong logistics, reliable AV, easy guest flow, and a team that knows how to manage large scale events. For many organizers across Mississauga, Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area, the Mississauga Convention Centre has become a preferred venue because it offers all the essentials in one place. With flexible rooms, spacious exhibit halls, in house catering, on site support and convenient accessibility, it is designed to make tradeshows and expos run smoothly from setup to teardown.
Whether you are hosting a business expo, consumer show, cultural exhibition, vendor showcase, product launch or city wide tradeshow, the Mississauga Convention Centre helps create an environment where exhibitors can shine and visitors can explore comfortably.
A Venue Built for Large Scale Exhibitions
Tradeshows and expos work best in spaces that allow vendors to set up creatively and attendees to move easily. The Mississauga Convention Centre offers more than 30,000 square feet of flexible event space that can be adapted to suit almost any layout. Ballrooms and exhibit halls feature high ceilings, wide open floor plans, adjustable lighting and unobstructed views so exhibitors have room to build displays, booths and activation zones.
Organizers appreciate that the spaces can be divided into general halls, breakout areas, seminar rooms and lounge sections. This helps create a full experience that supports both exhibitor needs and attendee engagement.
Located minutes from Toronto Pearson Airport and close to Highway 401, 410, 403 and 407, the venue is convenient for exhibitors and visitors traveling from Mississauga, Brampton, Toronto, Oakville, Milton, Etobicoke, Burlington, Vaughan, Markham, Durham and surrounding regions. Free on site parking and full accessibility make the arrival experience simple for all guests.
