Dow Diamond for Trade Shows in Michigan

The first thing a great trade show needs is the perfect location. You want a venue that is within your region, allowing you to attract exhibitors to your area, yet convenient for all attendees. Dow Diamond is central in the Great Lakes Bay Region. We are easy to reach from US 10 and only a short drive from major Michigan population centers like Saginaw and Bay City. Exhibitors and attendees from all across the region will find us easily accessible.

For those who are traveling further, Dow Diamond is in Midland, MI, and is close to a variety of amenities. Out-of-town guests can stay at one of the area’s many comfortable hotels. Restaurants, brewpubs, and shops give them something fun to do while in the area.

Trade show venues also need ample space for hosting a large-scale event. Dow Diamond is home to multiple four-season event spaces perfect for every size of gathering. We can also offer access to the stadium arena, a wide open space ideal for massive numbers of exhibitors.

All of our state-of-the-art facilities are elegant and well-manicured to cultivate a professional environment. They’re fully equipped with all the event necessities, including chairs, linens, and AV equipment. In addition, Dow Diamond also features a massive 31-by-80-ft. LED TV screen with a modern sound system. Special speakers can be broadcast and seen across the whole stadium.

We also provide plenty of parking. Stadium lots provide over 700 on-site parking spaces. There is also an abundance of extra parking space in the neighborhood, with over 2,000 spots available at local businesses and public lots.

Whether tasty snacks for visitors or meal breaks for exhibition staff, everybody needs to eat. Every attendee who leaves the venue for a restaurant means lost foot traffic for your show.

Dow Diamond offers professional onsite catering for a range of setups, including seated meals, buffets, and passed appetizers. Our classic stadium menu is famously delicious, but not the only option. We also cater a variety of special event favorites including pasta, soup, salad, and pot stickers. A taco bar offers a unique buffet option. For drinks, we offer soft drinks, beers, seltzers, canned cocktails, coffee, and tea. Desserts are also available, highlighted by Grand Traverse Pies, to satisfy any sweet tooth.

Event catering menus are fully personalized. Before your trade show, we’ll schedule a private tasting to help you select the best dishes for your event and decide how they’ll be presented. Together, we’ll tailor the perfect menu for your show.

Nobody plans or hosts a trade show by themselves. When you choose the Great Lakes Loons stadium for your venue, you gain access to our experienced staff. Our team will work alongside you to coordinate a theme and decorate event spaces for your desired ambiance. While you’ll always have the final say, the staff will provide extra assistance and support to help you achieve your vision for the event.

Stadium staff will also be onsite and on-call throughout the trade show. They’ll be available to help out with anything you need, from using the facilities and amenities to responding to minor emergencies, so you can stay focused on hosting the best trade show possible.
