Riverside

The CVB provided valuable assistance and information on area activities for our group, VIP amenities, and special perks for key staff. the CVB was enormously instrumental in the success of the convention… event attendees love the area! The proximity of hotels and restaurants to the convention center make it a perfect location for meetings and events. The downtown area is charming… we look forward to our next experience in Riverside!

I always have a wonderful experience working with Tuyen, Shaheen, and the team at the Riverside Convention Center. They are incredibly responsive, professional, and consistently go above and beyond to ensure everything runs smoothly and all our event needs are met. Their commitment to excellent service has been instrumental in the success of our events. It's truly a pleasure to work with such a dedicated team!

The RCVB is a huge asset to the City of Riverside! I cannot thank the team enough for the highest level of service and hospitality provided to our group. It was a joy to work with them! Jamil was the best banquet professional I have ever worked with. He is a class-act, constant provider of solutions and a joy to work with! The food was delicious – thank you Chef Brad Martin! Security was top-notch. We loved Nelson - he was always on-point and took great care of our team! … RCC – beautiful, modern facility; and amazing staff that made our event one for the record books!

Working with Tuyen has been an absolute pleasure! From the very beginning, Tuyen was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely dedicated to helping us. Her expertise on the Riverside area is truly impressive, and she was able to provide invaluable insights that made our entire process seamless and successful. Her communication was outstanding; she was always responsive, patient, and willing to go the extra mile to answer our questions and address any concerns. It was clear that she is passionate about what she does and truly cared about our experience. If you're looking for someone who is not only an expert in their field but also a delight to work with, I cannot recommend Tuyen at Discover Riverside highly enough. Thank you!

I want to thank you for all you and the Riverside CVB did to make our meeting such a success. In 20 years of conference planning and management I had never seen this level of enthusiasm, support, and commitment. From the outset, the information you provided on the region was helpful in scheduling events… in addition, the University Of California-Riverside provided support, such as use of its facilities for field trips and receptions with conference planning and made our event memorable.

Downtown Riverside is a hidden gem! It truly is the perfect location for a mid-sized conference and, once you see and experience it, you truly get it. The Riverside Convention & Visitors Bureau and Riverside Convention Center always go the extra mile for us as I believe they do for every client. That’s not something we, as meeting planners, see every day. The Center lays out beautifully without being overwhelming and is surrounded by multiple hotels for accommodating room blocks, including the Historic Mission Inn & Spa, and by amazing and walkable restaurants and shops. It’s easy to do business with Riverside and the team there helps us to stretch association business dollars through added value benefits and reasonable menu prices. I can’t say enough about my past experiences there and… we already have contracts booked well into the future. I encourage all of my right-sized clients to consider Riverside and, when they do, they never look back.
