The Venetian Expo (also known as the Venetian Convention and Expo Center)[1] is a convention center located in Paradise, Nevada, near the Las Vegas Strip.[2] It is part of the Venetian and Palazzo resort complex, owned by Vici Properties and operated by Apollo Global Management.
The convention facility was developed by Las Vegas Sands and opened as the Sands Expo on November 9, 1990. It was built as part of the Sands Hotel, since replaced by the Venetian. The Sands Expo was renamed the Venetian Expo in 2021, while Vici and Apollo were in the process of purchasing it. The facility is frequently used for conventions booked at the Venetian and Palazzo. It is also used as overflow space for conventions that outgrow the Las Vegas Convention Center.
