CHARLOTTE Charlotte Convention Center, 280,000 sf of exhibition space, 90,000 sf of flexible meeting space, and a 35,000-sf ballroom. Miles of SANDY BEACHES, huge entertainment centers, and a live theater scene continue to mark South Carolina’s gem Myrtle Beach as a major player in the meetings market. As it continues to up its luxury appeal, with much of its $2.6 billion in annual development going towards adding and renovating high-end properties and accommodations, as well as increasing direct jet service to major cities, this beach destination is growing in versatility, able to attract various groups with ease. Further down the Mid-Atlantic coast, Hilton Head has long served luxury on a shining platter, and having celebrated its gold (50th) anniversary last year, it remains a highly polished choice for meetings.
