We sat down with Alex Craddock, CEO of MetroCon, who shared why Tampa has been home to the convention since it launched back in 2003 — and why it’s never left.

METROCON welcomed 15,000+ attendees to Tampa Bay, a testament to the destination’s ability to support large-scale events year after year.

For meeting and event professionals, it’s proof points like this that matter: strong local infrastructure, consistent growth, and a destination that becomes a true partner over time.

Tampa Bay isn’t just a host city. It’s a long-term home for events that grow. 📈

23 years running, and every single one has been held right here in Tampa. That kind of loyalty says a lot, and so does the ability to host 15,000 fans, cosplayers, and creators comfortably under one roof.
