New Convention Center Opens in Anchorage

The new Dena’ina Civic and Convention Center opened Oct. 18.

The 200,000-square-foot facility is named after the Alaska native people, Dena’ina (pronounced DEH-nah EE-nah), meaning ‘The people.’

The $111 million convention center in Alaska’s largest city reportedly increases Anchorage’s convention space by 300 percent.
