Columbus Venue

Venue Overview

For our 6th Annual Summit, OCHBS is proud to host the 2026 event at the Greater Columbus Convention Center – 400 North High Street Columbus, Ohio 43215 – one of the busiest and most advanced convention centers in North America, located in the heart of downtown Columbus. As the 14th largest city in the U.S., Columbus offers a vibrant, accessible setting rich with entertainment, dining, and culture — making it the perfect destination for the state’s most anticipated cannabis conference.

The GCCC underwent a $140 million expansion and renovation, completed in 2017, elevating the space to one of the most modern event venues in the country. OCHBS will take place in Exhibit Hall A, a stunning 98,000 square foot hall with soaring 30-foot ceilings, perfect for housing our sponsors, vendors, speaker panels, product displays, networking areas, and workshop activations.

Venue Features & Amenities:

  • 6 connected parking facilities with over 4,700 on-site parking spaces
  • Spacious atriums with elegant flooring and open gathering spaces
  • Upper-level show management offices that overlook the exhibit halls
  • 35 loading docks for streamlined vendor move-in/move-out
  • Digital meeting room signage for real-time way-finding

Whether you’re showcasing a brand, hosting a session, or networking with cannabis leaders, the GCCC provides a first-class setting that reflects the growth and professionalism of the cannabis industry in Ohio and beyond.

Finally getting around to posting the *few* photos I was able to get at OCHBS last weekend it was such a wonderful turn out, the after party at the rock hall was so fun! Lenny Berry put together a WONDERUL weekend for us Ohio cannabis folks. The connection and community felt during the weekend was unmatched! I can't wait for next year!
