8 convention venues with 8 different personalities

Categories: Destination.

Imagine the best venue to share opportunities and knowledge. First you have to look for a good location and find accommodations for the participants, speakers, organisers… And, of course, they have to eat, right? It should be a special place, with some kind of charm where you can offer a varied, engaging programme. And you shouldn’t have to waste too much time on transfers… Imagine that all of this is possible in Costa Brava the and the Pyrenees of Girona…

A well-kept secret

 

Situated between the sea and the mountains, Girona is a city full of delights for newcomers. Three convention centres, the Girona Conference Centre, the Girona Exhibition Centre and the Mercé Cultural Centre are beautifully complemented by a variety of unique venues where gala dinners, cocktail parties and parallel activities can be hosted throughout the national and international conferences and workshops frequently held in the city.

Imagine yourself walking through the best-preserved Jewish Quarter in Europe, or strolling by the houses on the Onyar River as you solve the quests proposed by your iPadQuest.

Conventions by the sea

Lloret de Mar has a longstanding tradition in tourism with a good number of hotel beds and three large facilities where conferences and conventions can be held by the sea: the Theatre of Lloret, the Costa Brava Conference Centre and the Olympic Conference Centre.

Imagine yourself welcoming the participants of your congress at a beach party, as the organisers of the TBEX conference did.

Platja d’Aro, located near the main roads, has a range of retailers and entertainment that is the perfect complement to your own convention programme, with activities to please everyone.

And if you choose Roses, you’ll find all the venues and activities of a town that boasts outstanding tourist infrastructures and a peerless natural setting, with two natural parks, Cap de Creus and the Empordà Wetlands, along with countless coves along its coastline. Imagine everything you can offer your guests!

Imagine yourself at the Espai Ter, a multipurpose centre in Torroella de Montgrí and L’Estartit just next to the Medes Islands protected zone. Or the fishing village of Palamós, in one of its unique venues open to hosting all kinds of medium-sized professional and academic events.

History and nature

Enjoy the unique monastery in Sant Feliu de Guíxols, which dates back to the 10th century and hosts coffees and welcome cocktails in its L’Hort del Rector restaurant. In the same town, you can find a range of hotels ready to offer all the services you need for your gatherings.

Imagine yourself unveiling your products inside the crater of an urban volcano with views of the Pyrenees. Olot offers you its natural setting along with an array of unique historical venues, such as the Carme Cloisters and the Hospici Building, where you can set a different tone for your event.
