Venues to Choose when Planning a Meeting or Event

Choosing the right site for a business event is critical — it's the framework for your whole effort. When seeking a venue for a meeting or event, you have several options. Depending on the number of people attending and the type of event, you can go the traditional conference center route or try a road — or a cruise ship — less traveled. The following list contains places to consider when selecting a site:

• Hotels

  
  



• Conference centers

  
  



• Convention centers

  
  



• Resorts

  
  



• Retreat centers

  
  



• Cruise ships

  
  



• Unique environments, such as museums, stately homes, sporting venues, and theaters.

  
  

When in doubt about the choices available in a specific location, ask the local Convention and Visitors Bureau in your destination city for advice.
