Words by Coralie Georges October, 2023

When embarking on the journey of organising an event, the question of selecting the perfect event destination inevitably arises for most companies. While tasks like scheduling, sending out invitations, and securing guest speakers hold their significance, the choice of destination carries equal weight.

In this regard, we present a systematic 10-step approach to aid you in the process of choosing the best event destination. By adhering to these guidelines, you can confidently navigate the selection process and uncover the most fitting setting for your upcoming event.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Choose your Event Destination

Define Your Objectives

When considering event destinations, it’s crucial to align your choice with the specific objectives you have in mind. Whether your goal is to motivate employees, enhance team building, launch a new product, or conduct training, your destination selection should be guided by these aims. By choosing an event destination that complements your objectives, you’ll ensure a seamless alignment between your purpose and the location, leading to a successful and impactful corporate event.

Gain inspiration from our Destination Page, which offers insights into potential event locations. This checklist for selecting the ideal event destination will guide your decision-making process effectively.

Budget Allocation

Creating a well-rounded budget is essential for a successful event. This includes allocating funds for the venue, accommodation, transportation, meals, activities, and any potential additional costs. It’s imperative to ensure that the selected destination aligns harmoniously with these budgetary constraints, allowing for a successful and well-managed event.

Attendee Profile

To create an unforgettable and successful event, it’s essential to sync up with the desires and needs of your attendees. Are they in pursuit of relaxation, thrilling adventures, immersive cultural encounters, or valuable professional growth? 

It’s equally important to take into account any special requirements like accessibility or dietary restrictions. By addressing these elements, you’ll craft an event that leaves a lasting impression. Choosing the ideal event destination hinges on your ability to prioritise the desires and necessities of your attendees.

Accessibility

In the quest of choosing your best event destination, the power of choice lies within your hands. You need to opt for a location easily accessible to the majority of your attendees. Consider factors such as proximity to major airports, availability of transportation options within the destination, and the overall ease of travel. Making a thoughtful decision in these aspects will ensure a seamless and convenient experience for all participants, enhancing the success of your event.

 

Weather and Seasonality

Embarking on a journey towards a flawless event experience begins with an essential step – delving into the intricate details of your chosen location’s climate and weather conditions. 

Unforeseen weather whims can hold the power to shape your event’s destiny, particularly when it comes to outdoor activities. Yet, in the face of this uncertainty, lies an opportunity for meticulous preparation and adaptability. The true essence of an unforgettable occasion lies in the art of foresight. By thoroughly understanding the local climate and weather trends, you empower yourself to curate a seamless and joyous gathering.

Align the Destination with your Program

Venue and Accomodation

When planning your event, a key consideration is locating venues that seamlessly match both the size of your group and the specific requirements of your occasion. Prioritise aspects like meeting spaces, breakout rooms, and outdoor areas. Additionally, ensure that suitable accommodations within your budget are readily available. Consider both the proximity of lodgings to the event venue and local attractions for convenience. 

Local Activities

Unlocking the potential of your event lies in the careful consideration of local attractions, team-building opportunities, and a rich tapestry of entertainment choices. These elements are the threads that weave together an unforgettable attendee experience and shape the destiny of your event’s success. 

By immersing participants in a world of engaging and diverse activities, you not only stoke their motivation but also ignite a spirit of collaboration and sheer delight. Therefore, conducting a thorough assessment of your destination’s attractions and entertainment offerings becomes the catalyst for crafting an event that leaves an indelible mark on every participant.

Sustainability 

When Choosing the best Event Destinations, Prioritise Sustainability: opt for venues and activities that align seamlessly with your environmental goals and promote responsible tourism. Ensure your company’s commitment to sustainability shines through by selecting destinations that embrace eco-friendly practices. Make a positive impact by favouring venues and experiences that uphold responsible and ethical standards, contributing to a greener future.
