The Fairmont Scottsdale Princess has broken ground on a new conference center, which will add more than 52,000 square feet of indoor meeting space, including the new 23,000-square-foot Palomino Ballroom. The new $20 million conference center is slated to open on Oct. 11, 2012 and will bring the resort’s total meeting space to 150,000 square feet.
Existing meeting rooms will be updated and private walkways will be added between the two, 23,000-square-foot ballrooms to ensure group privacy. The entire 106,000 square feet of indoor space will include 47 meeting rooms, several with private patios.
The 649-room, AAA Five-Diamond Fairmont Scottsdale Princess is located by the McDowell Mountains in the Sonoran Desert, and comprises 65 acres.
