Location and Transportation

Venue Address

Exhibit Hall at Marin Center

20 Avenue of the Flags

San Rafael, CA 94903

Just about 18 miles north of San Francisco, the Exhibit Hall sits within the Marin Center campus — a convenient location for Bay Area attendees with scenic surroundings.

• Parking: On-site parking is available across the Marin Center campus and is generally ample for events; check your event details for the best lot options.
• Public Transit: The hall is accessible via Marin Transit bus lines, and the nearest SMART train station is in San Rafael.
• Rideshare & Dropoff: Rideshare services such as Uber and Lyft are recommended. Designated pickup and dropoff zones are typically available near the main entrance.

Arrival Recommendations

Plan to arrive 60–90 minutes before your event, especially for large expos and popular shows. Early arrival helps you find parking, navigate entry, and settle in before things get busy. If you’re meeting friends or attending as a group, use the main entrance or a clearly marked outdoor landmark as your meetup point.

While events are indoors and weatherproof, the surrounding Marin Center parkland and lagoon are outdoors — perfect for a pre-show walk if you’re early. If you plan to explore the campus before or after your event, consider bringing a light layer for evening breezes.

The terrain around the Exhibit Hall is generally flat, though you may have a brief walk from the parking lot to the entrance. Give yourself a few extra minutes if you’re arriving via public transit to account for the walk from the bus stop or SMART station connections.

Venue Navigation

Inside the Exhibit Hall, you’ll find a flexible, 22,500-square-foot open floor that’s reconfigured to fit each event — from theater seating to standing-room concerts to open expo layouts. Wayfinding signs and staff direct you to entrances, concessions, and event areas, making it simple to get where you need to go.

Concessions are available during events, and select shows and expos also offer merchandise stands. ATMs are available on the Marin Center campus. Because layouts change by event, restrooms and concessions may have different locations — follow in-venue signage or ask staff for quick guidance. Comfortable footwear is recommended if you expect to explore the expo floor or walk the campus grounds.

Security and Policies

• Bag Policy: Bag policies vary by event — please review your event listing and check the venue's official website for the latest guidelines before you go.
• Prohibited Items: Prohibited items vary by event — please review your event listing and venue policy updates prior to arrival.
• Re-entry Policy: No re-entry once you exit the venue.
• Service Animals: ADA-compliant service animals are welcome.

Post-Purchase Tips — Be Ready for Event Day

• Download your tickets before arriving — cell service can be limited.
• Bring a valid ID and cashless payment option.
• Charge your phone fully.
• Review venue policies in advance.
• Arrive 60–90 minutes early for smoother parking and entry at major expos.
• If time allows, enjoy a short stroll around the Marin Center lagoon or take in the Civic Center’s striking architecture before or after your event.

Pre-Event Planning

Make the most of your visit by combining your event with a campus stroll — the Marin Center’s lagoon, parkland, and open spaces set a relaxing tone before you head inside. Sunset walks are especially scenic, and the broader Civic Center complex adds a sense of place that enhances the experience.

Coordinating with friends? Plan a group meetup at the main entrance or a clear outdoor landmark so everyone can navigate easily. If you’re buying for a group, explore Ticket Purchase’s interactive map to compare price and view options before you purchase Exhibit Hall at Marin Center tickets — it’s the easiest way to keep everyone on the same page.

If you’re traveling from San Francisco or elsewhere in the Bay Area, consider public transit to San Rafael’s SMART station plus a short rideshare to the campus. It’s a stress-free alternative to driving, especially for peak-time events.

The Exhibit Hall at Marin Center offers on-site ADA parking, accessible seating (arranged through event organizers), and accessible entrances and ramps across the campus.
