Montréal’s continued success in attracting international association meetings is due in part to the strong collaboration between Tourisme Montréal, the Palais des congrès de Montréal, and the city’s stakeholders. These teams have worked tirelessly to provide exceptional service and support to meeting organizers, resulting in the hosting of major events such as the International Council of Nurses World Congress, the Annual Congress of the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis, and the InCyber Forum.
In 2023, the Palais des congrès, universities, and hotels in Montréal welcomed over 870,000 business tourists, including delegates from Canada and around the world. This influx of visitors has a significant economic impact on the city, generating jobs and supporting local businesses.
Montréal’s position as a leading destination for international association meetings is a testament to the city’s commitment to excellence in the tourism and hospitality sectors. The city’s vibrant culture, world-class infrastructure, and dedication to providing a memorable experience for visitors make it an ideal choice for meeting planners. As Montréal continues to evolve and grow, its reputation as a top destination for international association meetings is likely to only strengthen in the years to come.
