The meetings, conventions and incentive trips industry has continued its own dramatic upswing, to the point where Las Vegas is now one of the biggest and most beloved event destinations globally. Reno has also seen tremendous new investment in hotels and resorts.

It’s no accident that Las Vegas has finally claimed the undisputed title of No. 1 meeting and convention destination in the U.S. Its unparalleled meeting infrastructure and wow factor have propelled it into the stratosphere.

With 950 flights arriving daily at McCarren International Airport, and more than 150,000 hotel rooms on offer — most of them dedicated to the meetings and conventions market — it’s not hard to understand the appeal of Las Vegas as one of the world’s top conference and incentive destinations.

Few destinations can equal Las Vegas as a known quantity. The city caters to almost 22,000 meetings annually.

In December, for the fifth consecutive year, Las Vegas was named the world’s No. 1 meeting and convention destination by the World Travel Awards.

Planners who continuously return to Las Vegas develop valuable relationships with properties which, in turn, encourage even more repeat visits.

Las Vegas answers the challenge for groups that return to the same destination time and again but want the experience to be new and different each time.
