Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport serves more than 100 domestic and international destinations. With 1,200 daily flights—about 500 of them nonstop—Sky Harbor is one of the most convenient airports in the United States, and it's located an easy 10-minute drive from downtown or a 20-minute ride on the Valley Metro Light Rail (which costs only $2 each way).
To ensure a safe downtown for both visitors and residents, Downtown Phoenix has a dedicated police force with two units—special events and street enforcement – called the Downtown Operations Unit (DOU). The DOU has expanded its bicycle fleet to increase its multi-modal presence and is building out a new headquarters at Civic Space Park, just a few short blocks from the Phoenix Convention Center. The Downtown Phoenix Partnership Ambassadors serve as “eyes and ears” for the DOU, and have a close working relationship with public safety officers and have radio connectivity day and night.
Between hotels in downtown and those located minutes away along the light rail line, 3,000-4,000 committable rooms are available.
From affordable eateries, to grab-and-go convenience, to high-end restaurants, downtown meetings are supported by well more than 200 places to eat.
Southwestern experiences, desert gardens, sports venues and more: Greater Phoenix has an incredible spectrum of special event venues at your disposal, whether you've got a group of a few or a delegation of several thousand.

I think one of the reasons we selected Phoenix for our Convention is because my team just wanted me to stop talking about how wonderful my experience was!
From the time I touched down in Phoenix to the time I departed, I was taken care of, listened to, and felt like I was truly building a partnership, not a contract. The facilities are all spectacular and the hotels are convenient and beautiful, not to mention the walkability and diversity of the city. It’s the perfect fit for our event!
We visited Phoenix as a possible site for our General Assembly in 2012. As our meeting is held the end of June, we were concerned about the heat and weren’t too excited about Phoenix. We were stunned by what we found there! A state-of-the-art convention center, three hotels within two blocks providing over 2200 rooms and a downtown invigorated by a light rail system, a downtown ASU campus and residential growth. But what sold us on the city was their Faith in Phoenix team.
They got us!
They knew what was important to our group and they worked to meet our needs. They gave us a welcome the likes of which we have never seen!
