EXPERIENCE THE BEST OF THE EASTERN CAPE'S CONFERENCING AND EVENTS
Why not combine business with a little pleasure and organise your next networking meeting or conference to coincide with a winter weekend break? What better way to unwind after lengthy deliberations and difficult decision making.
The Eastern Cape conjures up visions of untouched natural splendour, noble heroes of the liberation struggle and gracious inhabitants. However, it also holds boundless promise for hosting top-notch conferences and events.
Have you become jaded with the usual old venues and the same old faces? You need look no further than the Eastern Cape for diversity. Not only does the area offer the big city excitement of some of South Africa’s better known conference venues, but nestled in the countryside are a range of facilities offering a unique convention experience, with many holiday and adventure activities for a bit of diversion on the side.
Big City Splendour
Nelson Mandela Bay, incorporating Port Elizabeth, the Provinces largest city, boasts a selection of conference and exhibition facilities designed to world class standards. This is complimented by a wide range of accommodation, culinary and entertainment options to suit even the most discerning delegates’ palate. The best in audio-visual technology is available at most venues.
Hosting a convention catering for sizeable crowds of delegates? Larger venues in the city are able to cater for up to 1 500 delegates, while smaller groups will find excellent service at the multitude of hotels in the city.
Located close by are activities such as game drives, quad biking, bungee jumping and of course, the waves for some post-conference team building.
On the border between the Sunshine Coast and the Wild Cost lies the harbor town of East London (incorporated into Buffalo City), with its own set of excellent venues for events. A bustling business centre, venues catering for larger conventions abound and various hotels also offer facilities for medium to small gatherings. Along the coastline many establishments offer sun and surf to relax the tired executive.
Town and Country
Historic centres of political and academic excellence could provide a potential theme for conferencing in the outstanding venues offered in Grahamstown. Other towns situated in picturesque countryside, which have top venues on offer, are Aliwal North, Queenstown, Cradock, Graaf Reinet and Sommerset East.
Eco-conferencing
Foster corporate team spirit in a unique atmosphere, come to the Eastern Cape where nature is our boardroom!
Delegates can experience unspoiled beaches, the vast Karoo landscape with unforgettable star-studded night skies, charming historic towns, and game parks stocked with wildlife, including the Big Five.
Game drives offer the perfect break from presentations and deliberations. In the Eastern Cape venues of this nature abound in most of the major tourism regions.
Venues in the many resort towns of the Eastern Cape of course offer the lure of the sun and sea. Places such as Cape St Francis and St Francis Bay, Jeffries Bay, Chintsa, Port Alfred, East London and Port Elizabeth are among the areas presenting the opportunity to host conferences and events surrounded by coastal ecosystems. At Tsitsikamma, the attraction of the sea is enhanced by the proximity of the magical forests.
