Charleston Gaillard Center (Conference Venue)
The Charleston Gaillard Center is named for J. Palmer Gaillard, the mayor of Charleston from 1959 until 1975, when he was appointed U.S. Deputy Secretary of the Navy for Reserve Affairs. While it originally opened as the Gaillard Municipal Auditorium in July of 1968, construction of the new Charleston Gaillard Center began in 2012 and was completed in October of 2015. The new Gaillard Center features the 1,800-seat Martha and John M. Rivers Performance Hall, a 15,000-square foot Exhibition Hall, and three floors of City offices.
The Charleston Gaillard Center is located at 95 Calhoun Street, Charleston, South Carolina 29401. The building sits on Calhoun Street between Anson Street and Alexander Street.
