Tucson Convention Center
formerly the Tucson Community Center
260 South Church, Tucson, Arizona 85701
The Tucson Convention Center (TCC) is located in downtown Tucson, AZ. This large venue features a variety of performances, concerts, and special events in the Arena, Music Hall, Leo Rich Theater, Exhibition Halls and Meeting Rooms.
The Tucson Convention Center Music Hall holds most of the intimate live music concerts. Although there has been a gap between major TCC concerts and other big show events, new acts are being booked. The Arena is suitable for large events with seating near 10,000. Tucson music events are expected to continue.
Plans for the addition of a new arena that will support 12,500 seats and other proposals to expand the TCC will eventually make it more suitable for large scale concerts, theater productions and other events that bypassed Tucson's small facility size.
The TCC was called the Tucson Community Center when first opened, but was later changed. The name was changed from Tucson Community Center to reflect the marketing towards conventions and larger meeting events.
The parking garage east of the TCC makes it convenient to park and walk across the street.
The Tucson Convention Center was built in 1971. The facility includes a 9,275-seat indoor arena, two performing arts venues, and 205,000 square feet of meeting space. The TCC hosts a variety of events including the annual Tucson Gem & Mineral Show, WWE wrestling, the Ringling Brothers and Barnum and Bailey Circus, music concerts, shows, and other events.
