The Bridge View Center, opened in 2007, is nestled on the banks of the Des Moines River and is the crown jewel for the City of Ottumwa. Whether you are planning a special banquet event, wedding reception, corporate meeting, trade show, or convention, the 92,000 sq ft events center can accommodate any event ranging from 3 to 3,000 people. The beautiful facility features a 664 seat theater, multiple meeting rooms, and a 30,000 sq ft multi-purpose exposition hall, providing a comfortable and picturesque location along the river. The venue offers great communication and customer service, with ample parking, including handicap access. However, the Wednesday buffet could use some improvement in terms of variety and quality.
We were here for a wrestling tournament. The space was great, and the venue is well taken care of.

Go every year for Halloweenapalooza and always have great time. Iowa’s only true horror convention. Great art, collectables, and movie stars. The people that run this are awesome and do a great job
