Our Unique CVB
Two City of San Jose Contracts
Team San Jose operates under two important contracts. One contract grants authority for venue management services of the San Jose McEnery Convention Center, California Theatre, Center for the Performing Arts, San Jose Civic, Montgomery Theater and South Hall. The second contract provides authority for sales and marketing services as the City’s sole destination marketing organization (DMO) and is tasked to increase tourism’s economic impact to San Jose through these efforts. In almost all other US cities these separate hospitality functions are run by two different agencies. The fact that we are one, offers unusual opportunities and provides economies and strategic advantages for our partners.
Team San Jose operates under the consumer brand named Visit San Jose for destination sales and marketing efforts and San Jose Theaters for all theater services.
