Tourism in Downtown SLC
Downtown Salt Lake City has the capacity to handle almost any type of convention while still catering to its steady stream of normal tourists. Salt Lake City boasts of the "Greatest Snow on Earth" and is world famous for its high quality skiing. Downtown Salt Lake City offers over 7,000 hotel rooms that range from economy to lavish, full service suites.

The Salt Lake Convention and Visitor's Bureau reinforces Salt Lake City's image as a first class tourism and convention destination. The SLCVB has a specialized staff of over 60 people to assist you in planning your next convention in Salt Lake City.

Downtown Salt Lake City also boasts the Salt Palace Convention Center, which will include 515,000 square feet of exhibition hall and 164,000 square feet of meeting rooms and ballroom space with completion of the latest expansion. The expansion construction will last until August 2006 and will launch the Salt Palace Convention Center into a select category of convention facilities that can offer to its clients over a half million square feet of contiguous exhibit space. The Salt Palace acted as the Main Media Headquarters during the 2002 Olympic Winter Games.
