  Cobo Hall - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cobo Hall, officially Cobo Conference/Exhibition Center, is a convention center situated in downtown Detroit, Michigan, USA.

However, it is considered somewhat undersized for this purpose, and a variety of proposals are currently being floated for either expanding the hall's convention space (possibly by eliminating either Cobo Arena or Joe Louis Arena) or building an entirely new convention center.
