The meetings and conventions market in Acapulco has experienced significant and rapid growth. For this reason, the Acapulco International Center (CIA), Acapulco's premier venue for meetings, conventions, and shows, is remodeling some of its areas to better meet the needs of conference attendees.
This business center is located approximately 25 minutes from the airport, strategically situated in the heart of Acapulco's hotel zone, and has a capacity for 15.000 people.
Furthermore, Acapulco's hotel infrastructure also includes meeting rooms and spaces suitable for business meetings. Additionally, hotels offer special all-inclusive packages for conference attendees.
Your convention, congress, or incentive trip must include a city tour. Acapulco is a complete destination, offering perfect weather, 365 sunny days a year, and, of course, its natural beauty and exotic beaches. Furthermore, you can't miss exploring Acapulco's enigmatic history, whose main witness, the Fort of San Diego, has endured to this day. Another piece of evidence is the Palma Sola archaeological site, where pre-Hispanic cultures performed religious ceremonies.
Acapulco International Airport has the appropriate infrastructure to carry out various direct flight operations or connections to different points within the Republic and abroad.
For all these reasons and more, Acapulco is the ideal place to hold a congress, convention, meeting or incentive trip, whether for a small or large group, national or international, while still enjoying the beaches and the great fun that this tourist destination offers.
Interview with Carlos Velázquez, director of the Acapulco Convention Bureau
Acapulco, the perfect combination of business and fun
– Why would you recommend Mexico as a destination for holding a congress or seminar?
Mexico undoubtedly represents the most important trade link in Latin America, thanks to its international agreements and treaties. Furthermore, it has achieved significant economic development, with tourism being a fundamental part of that growth.
Mexico is a country that has natural beauty, the warmth of its people and the best infrastructure to organize any type of international event, such as a congress, a convention, an exhibition or a fair.
Indeed, one of the most sought-after destinations for these types of events is undoubtedly Acapulco, a world-renowned port city known for its beautiful golden sand beaches, exceptional climate, hotel infrastructure, and wide variety of tourist services. Currently, Acapulco has seen increased activity in the business tourism market. Likewise, hotel chains have expanded their capacity and services, offering attractive packages for business meetings and appointments, including lodging, meals, and discounts on other services.
Acapulco has 25 international flights weekly, through airlines such as Continental Airlines, America West, American Airlines, Aeromexico, Mexicana de Aviación, Delta and Aerocaribe.
– What volume of business does conference tourism generate in your country?
The business tourism segment has not been fully exploited in Mexico, which presents an opportunity to generate greater interest in developing this market. Currently, business travelers represent approximately 7% of total visitors annually.
– What services does the Acapulco Convention and Visitors Bureau offer?
For the organization of these events, the Acapulco Convention and Visitors Bureau offers familiarization trips, VIP group services, immigration and customs assistance, and general logistical support.
