The
2016 Republican National Convention will be held in Cleveland, Ohio at the
Quicken Loans Arena July 18-21, 2016.
We will be showing a lot of what is going on outside the
Convention also.
The Republican National Committee (
RNC), the convention will host approximately 2,470 delegates and 2,302 alternate delegates from all
50 states, the
District of Columbia and five territories.
The convention will also include approximately 15,
000 credentialed media—an international press corps second only in size to the 2016 Rio
Olympic Games—as well as a global audience that will witness a front row seat online thanks to our
Internet and social media efforts.
Nearly 120 staffers will eventually live, dine and shop in the
Cleveland area in preparation for the 2016 Republican National Convention. And roughly 50,000 people are expected to visit the Cleveland area during the gathering.
2016 will mark the fourth time the
Republican Party will convene its convention in
Ohio.
The Buckeye State also played host to the 1876, 1924 and 1936
Republican National Conventions in
Cincinnati (’76) and Cleveland (’24 and ’36).
