Since January 2008, our fans have come out in large numbers to attend three very exciting Royals FanFests at the Overland Park Convention Center. We believe the success of each of these events is in no small part connected to the facility and its great staff. OPCC is a beautiful and well-maintained facility capable of hosting a variety of events, big and small. We expanded from our first and second FanFests and in 2010 added an awards banquet. The event has gotten better each year. Our fans appreciate the great access to the center, free parking, and an attractive setting.
The Royals are certainly fans of the OPCC.

"Thank you so much for everything you both did to help make the Rockhurst Mother Son Dance another tremendous success. As always, the Overland Park Convention Center did an outstanding job executing this large event. The room was beautiful and the food was delicious. Everything was perfectly in place as we had hoped and there was no detail left unaddressed. In addition, the courtesy of your enormous staff, including all of those wonderful servers, was just fabulous. I can say that each and every person we came in contact with was an absolute delight. On a final note, when I was in the ballroom shortly before the doors were opened, I was amazed to learn what transpires as the finishing touches are being made to the tables. It was just incredible to view the coordination which is required and the cooperation of your staff. You are fortunate to have such a wonderful group of people working for you. Thank you again so much for everything."
