Playing A Vital Role In Summit County
The Akron/Summit Convention & Visitors Bureau plays a vital role in supporting events at the Knight Center by connecting planners with local resources, promoting Akron and Summit County as a destination, and ensuring a seamless experience from planning through execution. Their expertise helps events grow year after year, benefiting both organizers and the community.
The impact extends well beyond the show floor. Large-scale events like the Akron Home & Garden Show generate significant economic benefits for downtown Akron — filling hotels, supporting local restaurants, shops, and attractions, and creating a ripple effect that strengthens the local economy. Longstanding partnerships such as this one demonstrate how collaboration and consistency can drive lasting success for downtown and Summit County.
