The Phoenix Convention Center is an events venue in downtown Phoenix, Arizona located along East Monroe, East Washington, East Jefferson, North Second, North Third, and North Fifth Streets. The center opened in 1972, and has since hosted national and regional conventions, trade shows, consumer events, and theatrical productions.

The convention center has three buildings; its north and west Buildings are connected underground by a shared exhibit hall and by a skyway bridge over North Third Street, and its South Building is a stand-alone facility. The center's Third Street Canyon between its North and West Buildings is sometimes used as outdoor event space.
