Nice place. Clean bathroom and plenty of parking lot. Easy access
Very nice convention center! Ideal for regional and smaller events. Visited here to attend the vision event in March 2023 and very happy with the venue. On par with many of the larger places in Orlando and Las Vegas and Anaheim California. New and modern and there's free parking too! Comfortable atmosphere, large indoor spaces, classroom sizes are ideal and relatively quiet between the walls not a lot of noise coming from the adjacent rooms. Looking forward to returning next year. Thanks!
This is my second time at the overland park convention center, my first time was pre-covid for Brickworld Kc. This time it was for Naka-Kon. Both times I had a quite enjoyable experience and even the food was a great value for the price. I highly recomend their salads as they are massive and worth the price their charging. Many of my photos are from their Naka-Kon event.
I went for a business convention, and the place is huge. I was impressed with the setup and the latest technology they have. I felt i was sitting at the parliament.
Recently I was there for the Just For Her Expo. Oh what a fun day! The restrooms were kept cleaned & stocked downstairs. I liked the art they had on display on the lower level. Hadn’t seen that before. The event ran smoothly as usual. Normally I’ve been here for religious conventions so it was interesting to see how the set up was for this! For over 200 vendors, it ran smooth like butta!! Everyone was nice & engaging. This is a great spot for this event due to their being sooo much space. Especially during COVID still. The decor from the moment you step off the escalator was captivating, feminine, & got you excited to see more! The convention center is in a great location just off the highway. Close to a Children’s Hospital, & plenty of food & gas around. Nothing bad to say! Thanks!!
It was a beautiful, capacious, relaxing space! The hallways were wide and free of clutter. The decor was diverse, strategic, and plentiful. The seating was well spaced and comfortable. The restrooms were easily accessible on all levels, clean, and spacious.
A beautiful place. I loved the art work. The food was great, the staff were wonderful.
Allie and her team helped make our 2023 Heartland Model Car Nationals go smoothly again this year. Anything we needed, it was done within 30 minutes and this was while they had the 3 day Christmas Con taking up the complete top level. Hats off to the WHOLE OPCC team from management to the cleaning staff for a great weekend!
Don't depend on the sensory-friendly rooms being available or accessible to those who need them. Tried to use it at KantCon 2023 when I was getting overstimulated and overwhelmed. The qr code didn't work and the staff member's badge also wouldn't open the door. Luckily the staff was very apologetic and let me sit in a nearby room to wind down a little, but they should have been able to let me use the space intended for those who are neurodiverse. It's like having an elevator installed, but it's kept locked up so wheelchair users can't access it. Otherwise love OPCC and especially KantCon, but this was a real bummer and will make me reconsider how long, or if, I can attend events in the future.
Great place to work, people who care about each other and work hard to keep this machine going. Really talented staff, who can assist each visitor in hosting about any event big or small. Voted the best small convention center in north America! For great reason.
