Valley Ranch Convention Center Reaches New Phase
Construction of a 210,000-square-foot convention center in Valley Ranch’s entertainment district has entered its vertical phase. The $130 million project is starting to take shape, with walls erected, and is still on track for a fall 2026 opening.
The East Montgomery County Improvement District is developing the project, which HHCP Architects designed. SpawGlass is the builder.
The convention center’s design includes nearly 20,000 square feet of meeting space, a 55,000-square-foot exhibit hall and between 35,000 and 40,000 square feet of lobby areas with outdoor courtyards. Once complete, it will be the seventh-largest convention center in Texas, between Amarillo’s Civic Center and Auditorium, which is 300,000 square feet and Dallas Market Center, which is 200,000 square feet.
The Houston Business Journal reports the convention center is part of the next phase of The Signorelli Co.’s Valley Ranch, which focuses on bringing new retail, commerce and entertainment into the 1,400-acre master-planned community.
