Exhibit Halls
Meeting Rooms
A Premier Exhibit Hall for Trade Shows, Expos, and Large-Scale Events
Your exhibitors need room to set up properly, your attendees need space to move comfortably, and your event needs a floor that handles the logistics without friction. At LCCC, Freedom Hall delivers all of that across 46,508 square feet of open, flexible exhibition space purpose-built for trade shows, consumer expos, conventions, and large-scale public events. It's one of the largest contiguous exhibition spaces in Central Pennsylvania, and it sits in the heart of downtown Lancaster with direct hotel access, loading dock support, and an experienced operations team that knows how trade show floors work.
Freedom Hall divides into two sections, Freedom Hall A and Freedom Hall B, giving you the option to run concurrent events, separate exhibitor categories, or configure the floor to match your specific layout requirements. A spacious prefunction area rounds out the Level 1 footprint, giving your event additional space for registration, sponsor activations, and attendee flow between the main floor and supporting programming.
