Reviews of Centre des congrès de Québec
Nabil Naas
The building itself is big and easy to navigate. Some rooms are quite empty which makes it difficult for orientation. It could help to have a small area for food or snacks as we have to wait a lot as graduating student. Otherwise I would recommend for event and conventions.

The Québec City Convention Centre is one of the best conference venues in Québec City. The location is super convenient (right in downtown, close to hotels, restaurants, and Old Québec). You can walk pretty much everywhere you need to go. The building is modern, clean, and easy to get around. I really liked the coloured signs on the floor that help guide you to the right sector. It made navigating...

Beautiful convention center! I was here last week and the center was large enough to host two large groups. It was clean and offered great service. I would recommend organizations host here, as it's central and felt seamless.
John Karkosak
Interesting exposition, makes you think of the potential future if things don't change. A bit pricey, but overall a good experience.
Helin Hastekin
Definitely perfect place. We had an international congress on last November 2016. There was an excellent hospitality and warm regards
