Visit Bakersfield Convention & Visitors Bureau

Visit Bakersfield Convention & Visitors Bureau helps travelers and event planners explore the city and arrange group visits. Its visitor information center on Truxtun Avenue is beside the Kern Veterans Memorial and in front of the Amtrak station, a few blocks from the convention complex. Visitors can obtain local guidance and information about accommodation, attractions, dining and events. For organizers, the bureau provides meeting-planning resources, venue and hotel information, sports-facility guidance and a request-for-proposal service. Its sales team can assist groups considering Bakersfield for conferences, competitions or other gatherings. The visitor center welcomes guests on weekdays, excluding city holidays, with a midday closure; travelers can confirm opening arrangements before visiting.
