Facility to Support Need for Specialized Meeting and Convention Space in Fort Worth

 
 
FORT WORTH, Texas (January 7, 2008) – Norris Conference Centers and Sundance Square have finalized a deal that will bring the conference facilities to downtown Fort Worth in the location occupied by AMC Sundance 11 on Houston Street. AMC Entertainment Inc. will continue to operate in Sundance Square, consolidating its operations into AMC Palace 9 on East 3rd Street.
 
“The addition of Norris Conference Center greatly expands our services in Sundance Square,” said Johnny Campbell, President and CEO of Sundance Square. “SundanceSquare will now have premium space and services for meetings, seminars, expos, training, and special events. There is a great demand for this type of space in downtown Fort Worth and this partnership will enable us to bring additional business to the area.”
 
“Sundance Square has successfully completed the deal with AMC and Norris which consolidates theatre operations into AMC Palace 9 with stadium seating,” continued Campbell. “Norris’ full conference and meeting room facilities in Sundance Square will meet the growing convention traffic and meeting facilities requests. Conference attendees will enjoy all the shopping, dining and entertainment options within walking distance of the Norris Conference Center.”
 
Norris Conference Centers will begin renovation of their new site immediately with plans to open the 40,000 square foot facility in the fall of 2008. The current design includes six executive meeting rooms, featuring floor to ceiling soundproofed walls, individual thermostat controls and additional features to support corporate training, and sales meetings.  One room will remain in a theatre-seating configuration to support corporate meetings and press conferences.  Norris Conference Centers – Fort Worth will be capable of hosting groups of as few as two to four participants and up to 300+ participants.  Norris will rely on catering from Sundance Square restaurants, local audio/visual providers, and other hospitality related vendors to support their local operation.
 
“We are looking forward to being a part of this great community,” said David Norris, president of Norris Conference Centers.  “Working with the local businesses, we will continue to define Sundance Square as a prime destination for corporate meetings and conventions.”
