Operated by the City of Lakeland, the facility encompasses more than 100,000 square feet of meeting and exhibition space across seven distinct venues, welcoming over 500,000 attendees at 500-plus events each year. The complex is anchored by the George Jenkins Arena, which seats up to 1,450 for banquets and scales to nearly 10,000 in full-arena configuration, and the Youkey Theatre, a 2,218-seat performing arts venue that hosts Broadway productions, symphony performances, corporate general sessions, and dance competitions. For conventions and trade shows, the Exhibit Hall and Sikes Hall together offer more than 52,000 square feet of divisible, column-free space.
