    Wow!

    Oh man, what a nightmare. My son came to retake the SAT and I don't know if they weren't expecting the drain on bandwidth but sections of the halls were started an hour or 90 minutes late into the SAT as they waited for Moscone to restore WiFi. Over 4,000 students showed up to test and the absolute traffic crawl towards Moscone had kids jumping out with backpacks or laptops and nervous parents like me telling them to "follow the crowd" to cut through to the Convention Center. A nervous way to start a test day at 7:15am on Saturday morning. If you have a choice, I would not recommend Moscone as an SAT testing spot. Bad.

    Moscone Center right by Yerba Buena Park and the Metreon is a great venue for large-scale events and conferences. I've been here for Dreamforce, and it can feel like Disneyland navigating all the places to go. Moscone has multiple buildings, so different events and panels might be spread out within these buildings.

    I was recently at the Moscone Center for the Databricks Data + AI Summit and spent nearly a week onsite as part of the global event marketing team. So let's just say I got to know the space pretty well. The convention center spans three buildings: South, North, and West. South and North are connected underground, which made it easy to move between them. West is just a short walk down the street. With 22,000+ attendees, we also used nearby hotels for additional event space, and having so many properties close by made that simple. The one area that could use improvement is the food. As staff working long hours, we had meals provided throughout the day and honestly, they were pretty underwhelming. Aside from that, no real complaints. It's a solid venue for large-scale events.

    This was my first time ever at the Moscone center, and I had no idea how huge it was! I had only been to the Metreon, which is around the corner, but goodness!! I was amazed with how many booths were set up inside and how the employees were able to set up a real Basketball court and stadium with bleacher seats so everybody could see!! Some of the booths like the Michela ultra booth had an upstairs area also!! I have no idea how hide the ceiling was, but it was huge inside!! Not to mention how many people were there, but there wasn't any trash anywhere!! So the employees that were hired were really on their toes about keeping everything clean and organized!! I was very impressed with how friendly all the staff were at each of the booths as well as the actual Moscone Center security and their understanding of people getting lost in going in the wrong places. Lol I liked how many restrooms they had specially in the women's area!! Most women's restrooms are only a couple and we're always waiting in line for a while. There were at least three sets of bathrooms with maybe 10 stalls inside each bathroom!! I just wish there were more food vendors or maybe a mini food truck or something inside that had more Things to offer! I was very impressed with the NBA crossover event that was also set up here!!

    Went to the NFL experience during Super Bowl week at the Moscone center. Not sure what to expect since I haven't been to these events before but it was definitely a good time. Exhibits, activities, and freebies were all good. The little guy had a good time and I thought the activities for the kids were very well run. Also definitely good value for the price. I personally thought the NFL APP could have been better, didn't add enough, or was maybe even unnecessary - but that's probably nitpicking. Other than that - not sure if there was bag storage in the area, so we made some arrangements for that beforehand just in case (I used Bounce, there's a Soma Wines very close by that can store bags / luggage). Overall, highly recommend.

    We came to the Moscone Center to watch a Chinese 9-Man Volleyball Tournament. Amazing venue that accommodated a full tournament over 1600+ participants. Plenty of space, chairs, restrooms, food venue, etc. Highlight was seeing Justine Wong-Orantes (Olympic Gold Medalist for Team USA) in action in person! Amazing!

    Moscone Center is one of the most impressive venue spaces I've ever been in. I came for the 2024 Joint Mathematics Meeting which is the largest gathering of mathematicians in the world - there were over 5,500 attendees this year and we fit in the space surprisingly comfortably. I attend a lot of conferences and was blown away by the size, cleanliness, organization, and staff here! I can only imagine how much it must take to put together a conference of that magnitude - truly impressive. The Moscone Center consists of 3 large buildings: Moscone Center South (the largest), Moscone Center North (smaller and across the street, joined by a pedestrian bridge), and Moscone Center West. It boasts 1.5 MILLION square feet of exhibit hall space and up to 106 meeting rooms! Massive! The location is fantastic as well - right in the thick of DTSF tourist areas between Mission & Folsom streets. Lots of hotels, eateries, and attractions in the surrounding areas. I stayed at a Marriott right across the street which was next to the SF MOMA and had a great visit - in spite of some of the sketchy parts of the area (keep your wits about you and be vigilant and street savvy). In Moscone Center South, I attended a huge welcome reception in the gigantic downstairs exhibit hall and several lectures in their massive meeting rooms. Again, the layout, organization, and prep were amazing. We were all very comfortable and moved in and out of the events seamlessly. I also attended a few presentations in Moscone Center North - it's much smaller and less dramatic than the South building but still worked well for these smaller events. Moscone Center South also had a little coffee stand with light eats and various drinks. They serve Peet's coffee but it comes from a preprogrammed machine the workers use by just pushing a button for whatever you ordered so it isn't a true "coffee shop" experience. It was ok and had reasonable prices. I didn't have a car but I reckon the biggest challenge here would be parking. There is none on site - it's all paid parking in the surrounding area - prices can be exorbitant and the surrounding area is pretty sketchy so I wouldn't recommend it. Overall this was a fantastic venue for a massive conference and I can recommend the Moscone Center with all confidence!

    I recently attended the AAO conference at the Moscone Center. To me, it was a bit confusing how there were different buildings that were not directly next to each other (I.e., West building, South building), so I ended up walking more than I needed to because I was in the wrong building.

Arrived at 5:30 and was surprised when I saw a small but decent amount of folks here. When I approached the bar and got my first drink, I understood why folks were there so early....the drinks were a buck! Such a steal and great way to get folks in. The concept of battle of the decades is great too! Each hour is a different decade of music,starting with the 60's. I spent a few hours dancing from 60's-80's music until about 8pm (perfect for an old millennial like me) until the place filled up. Totally great night at Monroe. Cheap drink specials, great music, and I was able to get in bed by 8:30pm. I'll definitely be back again.

Located on Broadway in North Beach, it's always high energy and popping, but I've never had any issues getting in. Also love that there's no cover charge for women, so I can just enjoy the night with my friends here without having to pay the equivalent price of a drink before I've even stepped inside. Even with the club frequently packed, especially the later in the night you go, I find the facilities pretty clean compared to many other similar lounges. It's also conveniently located near late night pizza and crêpe eateries that are still open after Monroe closes for the win, which makes it an all-around no brainer to choose going here versus other venues.

The building was a printing press back in the day, so it's a bit of a maze but that's part of the charm. I've discovered some amazing local businesses.

As for the craft fairs, respect jewelry, candles, cutting boards, and even a few food vendors. That's where I discovered Apisol, a woman-owned company based in the Peninsula that makes delicious sparkling honey beverages. Don't miss the vintage store on the first floor, which has really unique vintage products like postcards, buttons, posters, and more.

I never heard of this place until a fellow Yelper brought this up to me and I said SFBox? I never heard or been in this location before and I am sure most of you never heard of this place either unless you search for history of the William Randolph Hearst printing press building so many years ago. The building was built in 1926 as a printing plant for the San Francisco Examiner. It is a nice mixed use building like a nice cozy maze to explore the nice layout and architecture of the old print shop. So upstairs about 2 floors and vendors are scattered so it's like a hunt for them, almost like a needle in haystack. Lol Well it's not that hard as you won't miss anyone. Too floor that where you will satisfy your sweet tooth . Yummy. The vendors that were there were a nice mix from tea, cheese, spices, India coffee , Turkish spreads, ice cream, giant cookies, healthy drinks, spreads, and I am sure you will find something you will enjoy. I don't normally buy stuff, but the honey , red beet, 2004 sweet land Bingdao $95 brick tea that is aged 21 years that can make 175 tea servings for $95, Il Fiorello basalmic vinegar was thick and smooth great texture and syrupy taste very captivating and Taste of Levant tahini and their chocolate jar of molasses was excellent and I had to buy them. Yummy in my tummy! Not sure if same vendors will be there again, so catch them the at your farmers market, festivals or next Eats event!

There was a huge line for the coffee when I arrived that didn't let up until halfway through the show. They are doing this again in September and I would recommend if you are in the area. The only thing that would have made it better would have been less people given the amount of chatter and distraction of people walking by. I'm curious as to what this venue looks like in other set ups and at different times of the day because it is beautiful, what a nice spot in San Francisco.

    A Lifesaver for Our Wedding -- Exceptional Service and Stunning Space!…read more If I could give Carlos and Marigold more than five stars, I would. We were scheduled to have a small outdoor wedding ceremony at Mission Dolores Park, but when the San Francisco weather forecast turned "rough" just days before our April 1st date, we were in a total panic. I reached out to Carlos at the last minute, and the level of service we received was nothing short of extraordinary. Here is why you should book your next event here: Incredible Responsiveness: Carlos responded to my inquiry almost immediately and hopped on a call with me the same day to iron out the details. He made a high-stress situation feel completely manageable. Accommodating & Flexible: Even with our last-minute request, he was so generous with the timing. He allowed us to come in early at 2:00 PM to set up flowers and told us there was "no rush" to leave, letting our group stay and enjoy a drink before our dinner reservation. The Space is Stunning: We held our ceremony upstairs in a beautiful, dry, and welcoming space featuring a gorgeous mural. It was the perfect backdrop for our 10-person group--intimate, stylish, and full of character. Personal Touch: Carlos even provided his personal cell number for day-of coordination to ensure everything went smoothly. That level of care is rare. Carlos, thank you for your kindness and for helping us make our wedding ceremony so special. You lifted a huge weight off our shoulders, and we can't recommend Marigold enough!
