About Joseph A. Floreano Rochester Riverside Convention Center
The Joseph A. Floreano Rochester Riverside Convention Center is an award-winning venue ideal for events like trade shows, conferences, banquets, weddings, and galas. With 100,000 square feet of versatile space, it can accommodate large gatherings, including banquet seating for 3,500 and theater seating for 5,000. The center features 25 meeting rooms and state-of-the-art audiovisual capabilities. While the facility is clean and well-maintained, navigating the extensive corridors can be challenging, particularly during multiple concurrent events. Attendees appreciate the helpful staff who provide directions and maintain cleanliness throughout the venue. The attached parking garage and enclosed walkways to nearby hotels and dining add convenience. Despite some ongoing construction outside, the overall experience is positive, with decent food options and a welcoming atmosphere, making it a great choice for future events.
Everything in Rochester is naturally wonderful and the convention center is no exception.

Great venue for events. Only complaint is that parking is a hike and I'm disabled. Have to go across a gangway across the street, down a hallway, down escalator, across a large lobby, up another escalator, across another lobby - to get to the event. No other way in. Otherwise it's a nice venue.
