The 2024 Destination Planning Guide (DPG) is a top resource for planners seeking to host a meeting, convention or event in Philadelphia.
The DPG offers planners a comprehensive overview of why and how to execute a successful event experience in Philadelphia. With details on the Pennsylvania Convention Center and other unique local venues, insight into Philadelphia’s convenient East Coast location, and a planning-in-Philadelphia checklist, planners can make informed decisions tailored to the specific needs of their event.
“In the highly competitive landscape of city tourism and event hosting, the PHLCVB’s Destination Planning Guide…give[s] Philadelphia a distinct advantage,” Maria Grasso, PHLCVB Chief Sales Officer, said in a media announcement. “These tailored resources for meeting planners…ensure Philadelphia not only meets but also exceeds the expectations of its diverse audiences, establishing it as a premier destination for both business and leisure.”
The DPG provides resources for planning a DEI-minded event in Philadelphia. This year’s edition features a guide to planning accessible meetings in Philadelphia, with guidance from the executive director of the Philadelphia Mayor’s Office for People with Disabilities. It also includes a downloadable link to the PHLCVB’s new Diversity Guide and a diverse business directory.
