The Sands Expo and Convention Center is now The Venetian Expo. Las Vegas Sands Corp. announced in July that it was making the name change.
In addition, The Venetian Congress Center, a group of meeting rooms and ballrooms within The Venetian, has changed its name at the same time to The Venetian Convention Center.
Venetian spokesman Keith Salwoski said the sign on the 2.25 million-square-foot convention center adjacent to The Venetian — the largest private convention center in the United States — is being changed this week. Work began on the sign change Tuesday night.
“As part of our transition plan, we are removing the Sands portion of the Expo sign this week,” Salwoski said.
