Need to Know

Best for
A ticketed event with its actual Benton North or Benton South hall confirmed, using the operator’s two complete facility plans and working 31-highlight photographic tour. The plans identify hall connections and visitor facilities rather than assigned seats.
Watch out for
Benton North, Benton South and the Marriott are different parts of the connected complex. Match your ticket to the named hall and level. The linked North and South PDFs were created in 2023 and 2021; capacity tables do not establish the wrestling-ring, stage or chair layout for your event.
Good arrival window
Use the organizer’s door or registration time and confirm the named hall before leaving. Contact Twin City Quarter at 336-397-7777 for venue questions; ordinary hotel check-in times are not event admission times.
Main transit note
The facility plans give Benton Convention Center as 301 West Fifth Street, Winston-Salem, NC 27101. The operator’s 425 North Cherry Street footer is the broader Twin City Quarter/Marriott contact address. Follow your event’s named Benton entrance and level.

Parking At A Glance

Parking difficulty

Parking options (opens in a new tab)

Connected North/South complex; match the event hall

What to do
Use the named Benton hall and level on your ticket. The North plan labels the Fifth Street main entrance, Cherry Street lower entrance and parking-deck skywalk; North and South also connect by a lower-level tunnel.
Best option
Confirm the currently available deck, entry door and access route with the organizer or 336-397-7777. The operator describes climate-controlled walkways connecting the convention center, Marriott and parking decks.
Avoid
Do not assume the 425 North Cherry Street hotel/contact address is the door for every Benton event, or that a building plan guarantees parking rates, available spaces or a temporary seating layout.
