Ocean City Visitor Center · Ocean City, Maryland

Is the visitor center the same as the Convention Center?

Answer

No—the Roland E. Powell Convention Center on Coastal Highway hosts trade shows, tournaments, and festivals; visitor information desks focus on general tourism guidance for the whole island. Springfest and similar events may place welcome booths nearby, but they serve different purposes. Do not park for a beach week at the convention hall unless you have an event ticket.
