SAN MATEO COUNTY EVENT CENTER, SAN MATEO, CA

The finest facility for large indoor public events in northern California.

Conveniently located where Highway 101 meets 92, the Event Center is mid-way between San Francisco and Silicon Valley. For East Bay gardeners, the San Mateo bridge brings one to within a few blocks of the Center.

There are good public transportation connections.  The Hillsdale Caltrain station is within walking distance of the Show.  Millbrae has a BART station from which you can transfer to Caltrain.  See the getting there page for complete directions and transit information.
