Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex

The BJCC creates region-wide jobs and economic benefits.

Spending associated with Convention Center events interacts with all sectors of the local economy. Convention Center events are responsible for supporting many jobs county-wide. While many of these jobs are in the hospitality sector, others are in sectors as diverse as agriculture, durable good manufacturing, and construction.

The Convention Center's primary mission is to attract conventions and meetings that will generate economic benefits for the region. When convention tourists come to Birmingham they create economic activity. Activity that ripples throughout our region.

The BJCC is an important community gathering place.

The BJCC is more than just a venue for conventions and trade shows, it is a magnet for the local community too. As one of the city's premier gathering places, it is where concerts, Broadway shows, local meetings, banquets, educational, cultural, religious and social functions are held on behalf of all members of the community.

We host popular consumer events like the Birmingham International Auto Show and Birmingham Sport & Boat Show that thousands flock to every year.
