NOISE-CON 2023 will be held at the DeVos Place which is a premier convention center located in downtown Grand Rapids, Michigan. It is nestled beside the Grand River with a picturesque riverfront setting. Downtown Grand Rapids is located 15 minutes from Gerald Ford International Airport and is easily accessible from all major interstates. DeVos Place is part of a vibrant downtown entertainment district featuring dining establishments, nightclubs, four museums, and the 12,000-seat Van Andel Arena, all within walking distance. To find things to do and places to eat in the area, please visit here. Immediately adjacent to DeVos Place, we have reserved a room block at the Amway Grand Plaza Hotel which is accessible by a climate-controlled skywalk.
