Visit Baltimore and its tourism and safety partners have implemented a program during citywide conventions and events to ensure the safety of all visitors. Discussions are held regularly to review upcoming events and plan accordingly for appropriate safety resources and deployments.
Visitors attending the event can expect an increase in safety precautions including:
- Deployment of private security contractors to provide additional assets and patrols around the convention area and activities.
- Increased safety protocols by the Downtown and Waterfront partnerships around the Convention Center, contracted hotels and off-site event venues used by the group, including additional presence by private security contractors and public law enforcement agencies at every level.
- Parking monitoring in the downtown Baltimore area.
