We always say that Porto is on the rise for meetings and events and the ICCA ranking doesn’t let us lie: Porto has risen four places and is now the second most attractive European city for events, among cities that are not capitals of their respective countries.
According to the ranking of the ICCA – International Congress and Convention Association, the organisation that every year highlights the best destinations for the Meeting Industry, Porto is attracting more and more people for business tourism and events.
Porto is the leading destination among the cities that belong to the European Convention & Visitors Bureau collaborative network and neighbouring cities Braga, Guimarães and Matosinhos are also showing their competitiveness in this segment and have moved from modest positions to relevant ones.
The Northern Region of Portugal really is an important destination to consider for your meetings and events, as it offers the infrastructure, services and organisational capacity to meet the needs of each event’s profile, without ever forgetting the importance of parallel activities and the post-event social programme.
Ready to get to know Porto? We are certainly ready to welcome you and we are excited to show you all the potential of this city for your events.
