John B. Hynes Veterans Memorial Convention Center
900 Boylston StreetAbout
Its Back Bay location is what makes the Hynes the premier convention space in Boston. Outside the front door, conventioneers have access to an abundance of dining and shopping choices on Boylston Street, Newbury Street and Massachusetts Avenue. A handy option when the weather is poor is the indoor walkway to three hotels and two shopping malls, which contain many shops, restaurants and a movie multiplex. The convention center itself is a modern space with 37 dedicated meeting rooms, several ballrooms and 193,000 square feet of exhibit space. Up to 25,000 people can be accommodated.
