A new pedestrian walkway connecting the Reno-Sparks Convention Center and the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa has elevated the amenities available to convention exhibitors and attendees in Reno-Tahoe.

The Atlantis Sky Bridge offers convenient, all-weather access between the two facilities as well as opportunities for exhibitors to use the new space to attract attention in a high-visibility traffic area. Since the project was completed this year, it has already seen significant use by conventioneers looking to grab a bite at one of the resort’s many restaurants, visit the gaming floor or stop in to their hotel rooms.

The project was conceived as a partnership between the Reno-Sparks Convention and Visitors Authority and the Atlantis, and was fast-tracked for construction. Panoramic windows on either side of the walkway offer a stunning view of the Sierra Nevada to the West and the desert mountains to the East.

The project adds significant meeting capabilities to the already 500,000 square feet available at the convention center, with the hotel’s meeting rooms, as well as after-hours restaurants and nightclubs. A wide walkway area is a great place to set up tables, displays and information kiosks.
