Meet and Explore Affordably
Industry surveys consistently report cost as one of the most important factors driving planners’ destination decisions. Bringing your meeting or event to a small-market city like Eugene can slash the cost of venue rentals, lodging and dining in half. When you add free event support services and tax-free food and beverage, vendor services, shopping and dining, it all adds up to significant budget savings. Events that qualify for the Planner Incentive receive additional savings with money back post event.
Meet and Explore the Beauty
Before or after your event, attendees will want to explore the beauty that makes the Eugene, Cascades & Coast region a top destination choice. In this adventure-driven destination, attendees can hike to spectacular waterfalls, swim in hot springs, beachcomb below majestic ocean cliffs, explore the largest sea grotto in the country, ride in a dune buggy across miles of rolling sand dunes, sleep in a lighthouse B&B, kayak calm ocean estuaries, or shoot the rapids of the McKenzie River. Even in the urban core of Eugene, you’re immersed in the dynamic beauty of the great Pacific Northwest. The attendee experience has become a differentiator and a key driver in achieving meeting or event objectives and attendees rave about their experiences in the region, often calling it the most beautiful place they have ever been.
