The San Diego Convention Center floor is now 100% union! IT Technicians and Event Coordinators employed by Smart City Networks have voted overwhelmingly to join IATSE Local 122, becoming the last group at the facility to unionize! 💪

BildIn a decisive victory for workers at one of the West Coast's premier convention venues, IT Technicians and Event Coordinators employed by Smart City Networks at the San Diego Convention Center have voted to join the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) Local 122. The election, held on May 21, 2026, resulted in a vote of 10 in favor and 2 opposed, an 83% margin in support of union representation. With this organizing victory, Smart City Networks becomes the last in-house employer at the facility to be unionized, completing a fully union convention center floor.
The newly formed bargaining unit covers 12 workers across four classifications: Technician I, Technician II, Event Coordinators, and Customer Service Representatives. These workers are responsible for designing, deploying, and maintaining the high-speed internet infrastructure, Wi-Fi networks, and event technology systems that serve the thousands of planners, exhibitors, and attendees who pass through the San Diego Convention Center each year for events including San Diego Comic-Con, the American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting, and the ESRI User Conference, among many others.
Smart City Networks is a national company operating in 25 convention centers across the United States, delivering high-speed internet, Wi-Fi, and cutting-edge event technology to trade shows and exhibitions nationwide. Their workers are the backbone of that operation, ensuring seamless connectivity and expert support for Planners, Exhibitors, and Attendees at every event.

This #MemorialDay, we honor and remember the brave heroes who gave their lives in service to our country and our freedoms. As union members, we proudly carry forward the values of unity, sacrifice, and solidarity by continuing the fight for fairness, dignity, and a stronger future for all workers.

IATSE is ON STRIKE against CoComelon: The Melon Patch, a live-action spin-off of the union-made animated series. Rather than provide fair wages and benefits to the crew the producer is trying to hire scabs for the production that’s shooting in Sun Valley, Calif.
