Event Staffing at the Pennsylvania Convention Center

Trade shows, conventions, and large-scale activations at the Pennsylvania Convention Center need teams that know how to work a show floor. Meridian Talent House provides them.

Staffing for events at Pennsylvania Convention Center

Located at 1101 Arch Street in Philadelphia's Market East district, the Pennsylvania Convention Center offers more than 2 million square feet of event space, including 7 exhibit halls and more than 82 meeting rooms. Opened in 1993 and expanded in 2011, it hosts around 250 conventions, trade shows, and conferences each year, including the Philadelphia Auto Show and the Philadelphia Flower Show.

Meridian Talent House is based in the Philadelphia area, so these venues are our home turf: local talent, fast response times, and teams that already know how event days flow here. Every team member is vetted and briefed on your brand before the event.

Meridian Talent House is an independent staffing agency. We staff events held at Pennsylvania Convention Center, and we are not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by the venue.
