The Second Four-Month Period In 2016 Brings Conventions To The Riviera Nayarit
- Eight separate medical, academic, tech, sports and cultural meetings and conventions will be taking place in the Destination’s hotels between May and August, generating approximately 8,500 attendees.
The Riviera Nayarit is a destination with the service infrastructure needed to host top events as well as meetings and conventions, which will go into full swing starting this month through the end of September.
“The meetings and conventions will serve to bolster the slow tourism vacation season in the Destination, which is why our Groups and Events desk is focusing on attracting a variety of these events and encourage them to visit during this period of time, thus benefitting both the organizers as well the hotels,” commented Marc Murphy, Managing Director of the Riviera Nayarit Convention and Visitors Bureau.
