Accessibility for People with Disabilities & Special Needs

The San Diego Convention Center is ADA compliant. In accordance with the ADA, the Center is responsible for permanent premises access accommodations, such as wheelchair lifts, elevator standards, door width standards and restroom accessibility. The Center’s underground parking garage also has 31 ADA compliant parking stalls and elevator access.

There are two TTY phones in the Convention Center:

• Admin Receptionist in the Administrative Office area, located on mezz level by taking the elevator in lobby E or upper level by room 21, to the mezzanine and exiting to the right.
• Lobby 6, bayside. TTY is connected to one of the 3 remaining payphones.
