About us

Rising above the heart of one of the world's great cities, the Hilton San Francisco Union Square is more than a convention hotel — it is San Francisco's premier stage for extraordinary events. As the largest convention hotel in the city, we offer an unrivaled combination of scale, sophistication, and service that transforms every gathering — from intimate boardroom sessions to landmark citywide conferences — into something truly iconic. With 134,500 square feet of beautifully appointed, technology-forward meeting and event space spanning some of the most striking venues in the city — including the Grand Ballroom with its soaring ceilings and programmable LED ambiance, the light-filled Yosemite Room, and the incomparable Cityscape Sky Bar perched atop the 46th floor as San Francisco's highest sky bar — our property delivers an event experience that is as visually stunning as it is operationally flawless. Every event at Hilton San Francisco Union Square is supported by an exceptional team of on-site Certified Meeting Planners, professional A/V specialists, and award-winning culinary talent — dedicated partners who bring precision, creativity, and white-glove service to every detail. Our robust suite of branding and activation opportunities, from dramatic digital signage and custom column wraps to in-room tablets and beyond, ensures your brand is woven seamlessly into every touchpoint of the attendee journey. We are also deeply proud of our identity as San Francisco's "Hotel with a Heart" — a recognition of our longstanding commitment to sustainability, community, and responsible hospitality. For planners who believe that great events should also do good in the world, we are a natural and inspired choice.

Rock 'n Roll Team Building
Rock 'n Roll Team Building
Multi-city
Connection. Creativity. Chaos (the fun kind). Available all over the USA! Forget the icebreakers and trust falls. This is team building that cranks up the volume and gets your people actually connecting — not just collecting another tote bag. We take your team, hand them a mic (sometimes literally), and turn a room of colleagues into a full-blown rock choir. It’s equal parts live music, laughter, storytelling, and spine-tingling harmony — all tailored to your event. Here’s What You Get: • 🎸 Live Music that kicks like a drum solo at Wembley • 🎤 Storytelling that hits the heart (and the funny bone) • 🎶 3-Part Harmony Choir — no singing skills required, just good vibes • 🤘 Audience Improv — spontaneous, unforgettable, and never awkward • 📝 Custom Song Creation that ties your event together with a chorus your team will hum all the way home Perfect for: • 🚀 Launching big ideas • 🔋 Energizing the middle of a long agenda • 🎉 Ending on a high that actually gets remembered We’ve done this with 10 people. We’ve done it with 2,500. Either way, we bring the same stadium-worthy energy. We’re fronted by Grammy-nominated INXS frontman Ciaran Gribbin, backed by world-class musicians, and powered by pure rock ‘n roll spirit. This isn’t “team building.” It’s a shared experience that gives your people goosebumps, grins, and genuine connection. Ready to shake things up? Let’s talk. "Best Team Building I've ever booked. Ciaran and the band were great." Arrow Electronics "It was absolutely the best team event I have ever run or attended." Lamb Weston "I can honestly say that Rock 'n Roll Team Building is the best event experience I have ever seen at a conference." Jazz Pharmaceuticals
