Charleston Coliseum & Convention Center

Located on the banks of the Elk River, Charleston Coliseum and Convention Center is a major entertainment venue in West Virginia's capital city. With a history stretching back to the mid-1950s, the venue campus includes the 13,500 seat Coliseum, a newly renovated 100,000 square-foot Convention Center, the 3,483 seat Municipal Auditorium, and a smaller, 738-seat Theater. An inextricable part of the city of Charleston for decades, the entertainment center has hosted everything from basketball games and wrestling shows to sold out concerts from the likes of Elvis Presley, David Bowie, and Taylor Swift. Combining history and modern comfort, the impressive, glass-fronted Coliseum and Convention Center remains a popular stop for sporting legends and music stars alike.
