Conference Facilities

Collin College is more than just an institution for affordable, accessible education. We also serve the community by offering conference facilities, event spaces, meeting rooms, lecture halls, and classrooms for rent. Reservation fees vary depending on profit/non-profit status and availability. Professional on-site catering services through Collin College Catering Food Services and audio/visual services are available. Most centers feature excellent spaces for both small and large events such as banquets, lectures, organizational meetings, and workshops.
