AGC of America’s annual convention is the don’t-miss event of the year. It provides contractors of all sizes and markets the opportunity to gain a competitive edge, protect crucial business interests, build valuable industry connections, and prepare for future industry changes. Members hear from top-notch keynote speakers, attend highly informative educational sessions, and participate in critical networking opportunities.
Next year, beyond the convention program and outside the convention center, attendees will find more to explore – a city that is celebrated for its creativity, innovation, and dynamic atmosphere. With its remarkable arts, entertainment, fashion, and culinary scenes, exciting collegiate and professional sports teams, and the stunning green spaces along the Scioto Mile downtown riverfront, Columbus offers something for everyone.
The city’s food scene boasts top-ranked chefs, a thriving farm-to-table movement, and unique restaurants. It has consistently received national acclaim for its culinary scene, with Service Bar’s head chef, Avishar Barua, competing on Season 18 of Top Chef in 2021. There are more than 100 restaurants within walking distance of the convention center, offering a variety of local options from fast-casual to fine dining.
The vibrant neighborhoods provide endless entertainment options. Collectively known as the “Five on High,” these districts span a five-mile stretch of High Street, the city’s main thoroughfare. Each neighborhood is filled with local restaurants, bars, clubs, boutiques, art galleries, and more.
Please plan on joining us April 8-10, 2025, in Columbus for AGC’s annual convention, where you will obtain the tools necessary to tackle business and industry challenges and gain a great appreciation for all that the city has to offer.
