Yakima Convention Center Expansion

Design Principles

• Flexibility throughout
• Highly memorable
• Embrace existing architecture
• Yakima Valley specific atmosphere
• Viability

With over 200 sunny days a year, the Yakima Convention Center provides a retreat for residents of Western Washington. Conventions in the Yakima Valley offer agriculture, wine, and warmth; these attributes have inspired the new and renovated spaces throughout the facility.

The project consists of a 18,250 sf addition to the Convention Center and remodeling 5,000 sf of existing space affected by the new construction. The expansion adds much-needed exhibit, meeting and breakout space.
