Tijuana Congress Centre 2026: the northern border where the Tijuana-San Diego electronics cluster presents the new screen line and the USMCA compliance kit crosses the San Ysidro port of entry with a CBP certificate of origin

Tijuana Congress Centre 2026 is the most important convention centre on Mexico's northern border on Boulevard Abelardo L. Rodríguez, in the Río de Tijuana zone. Capacity for 4,800 attendees across three main pavilions, a 2,600-seat convention hall for keynote conferences, 10 workshop rooms for technical sessions of the electronics and medical device clusters, 420 stands for the border supplier expo, a 7-tonne freight elevator for electronic components, a manoeuvring yard with direct access to the San Ysidro port of entry for shipping to San Diego, a business centre with international telephony, a press room for reporters from El Sol de Tijuana, Frontera, Zeta and El Mexicano, and a back-of-house with fiscal custody chamber for CBP and USMCA-compliant merch. This is where the Tijuana Electronics Industry Convention runs, where the Tijuana-San Diego Corridor Congress runs, where the Border Medical Device Expo runs, where the USMCA Compliance Fair runs, and where the new electronics manufacturing and medical device lines from the Tijuana-Rosarito-Tecate cluster are presented.
