Beyond the Big Cities: Fresh Perspectives from Unexpected Destinations
Join us as we explore the rise of selecting smaller market cities for meetings and the opportunities available. With input from both corporate and association planner perspectives, regional CVB’s, a national hotel brand, and a boutique destination property, attendees will learn more about how these partnerships work and leave with creative destination ideas to consider beyond the scope of hosting in the usual “big five” cities!

Learning Objectives:
Identify key benefits and unique opportunities offered by smaller market cities.
Evaluate how these destinations can align with organizational goals and event outcomes
Apply practical strategies for destination selection, stakeholder engagement, and value-driven planning.
