Safe Meetings
Your health and safety are our top priorities. In light of the dramatic changes to public health guidance due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have updated or enhanced many of our protocols to support the safety and well-being of everyone who walks through our doors.
Reopening Status
Reopening Guide
Our Reopening Guide contains information about social distancing, infection prevention, PPE, health monitoring and additional industry best practices we are implementing at our facility. This guide is in draft form as we await further guidance from state public health officials. Once we have this guidance, we will be updating this page with specific information for attendees.
Certified Protocols
We are one of the first convention centers in the United States to achieve the prestigious GBAC STAR™ facility accreditation. Under the guidance of the Global Biorisk Advisory Council (GBAC), we have stringent protocols for cleaning, disinfection and infectious disease prevention.
Our food and beverage partners, Centerplate, earned an additional hygiene verification label, Rise SAFE, that is specifically for catering operations. Rise SAFE is managed by Centerplate’s parent company, Sodexo, and Bureau Veritas, an independent world leader in testing, inspection, and certification.
We are updating these plans as we continue preparing to reopen for events. We can't wait to safely welcome you to sunny San Diego!
