VBC Convention Hall

Free Services

Huntsville is in the heart of the South, which means we’re not only easy to get to, but a pretty friendly bunch as well. And that Southern hospitality definitely extends to our sales and services team at the Huntsville/Madison County Convention & Visitors Bureau. Being Southern and all, it wouldn’t be kind of us to brag about ourselves… but we do think you’ll appreciate the free services we offer for any meetings that happen in our area.
