About the BCEC
 The Boston Convention & Exhibition Center is Boston's newest gem and the home of Yankee Dental Congress®. This stunning complex is bright and spacious, and offers fabulous views of the city. The building was built with convenience in mind. YDC's move to this larger, state-of-the-art facility puts all aspects of Yankee under one roof, minimizing travel and saving time. From courses to exhibits to special events, you'll find it all in this beautiful, functional space.

Meeting rooms are located eight minutes or less from each other and the exhibit floor.
Two sky bridges span the exhibit floor and connect the east and west sides of the building, allowing attendees to save steps.

Isn’t the Seaport District a large industrial area?
Not anymore. South Boston's Seaport District is undergoing an amazing transformation into a mixed commercial, residential, and recreational area. Although anchored by the BCEC, this neighborhood is not destined to be a typical convention center district. Instead, South Boston is the city's next great community—a place where people will work, live, and play.
