Back to EpisodesHartford Convention Center: Hotel Rooms Needed for Revival
Description
Hartfords Connecticut Convention Center is recovering from the pandemic, with attendance matching pre-COVID levels. However, its missing out on significant revenue due to a lack of hotel rooms. The center lost nearly 700 rooms during the downturn and has seen major events like the New England Irish Dance competition and volleyball tournament shift to nearby cities. Local leaders are concerned about the impact on the economy. CRDA is launching a study to determine the number of rooms needed to reach full capacity, while new hotels are in the works. Hartford aims to reclaim lost events and boost the economy.
