Spain is a world leader in Meetings and Events Tourism (MICE), a safe option if you're looking for the best outcome. What makes a difference is the variety and quantity of resources, the extensive experience of our professionals, top-quality accommodation and extraordinary infrastructures. It is also a fascinating country and one of the most important tourist destinations in the world.
The data collected annually by the ICCA (International Congress & Conventions Association) report, where Spain ranks among the top positions, confirms that our country is one of the best destinations for hosting meetings, conferences and large professional events. Spain is the only country with two cities, Barcelona and Madrid, inclu-
ded in the top 10 of this report.
You can take advantage of the facilities provided by the 65 destinations that are linked to the Spain Convention Bureau (SCB), which gives free assessment on available infrastructures and resources to companies organising events, making it easier for them to contact each of the local conference offices belonging to the SCB.
There are also a number of associations which can be contacted with a view to finding the ideal local partner to help you organise your events. Essential guidance for you to find the added value you are looking for. SpainDMCs is an official association of prestigious incoming travel agencies specialising in meetings and incentive programmes.
If you want to hold a conference or convention, OPC España (Spanish Association of Professional Conference Organisers) will help you find your ideal space in any destination in the country. The main international associations for the sector, such as ICCA, SITE and MPI, also have a specific chapter made up of Spanish professionals.
The MICE Forum also brings together event organisers, suppliers of materials and personnel and many other associations in the sector.
According to the Travel & Tourism Competitiveness Report 2024 compiled by the World Economic Forum, Spain is the second most competitive country
Over 44 airports, an extensive highspeed railway network (AVE) and important cruise-ship ports make both internal and international travel easy.
in the world in tourism, worthy of note for its excellent infrastructure, immense cultural and natural heritage, ICT readiness and security.
You have plenty to choose from. In Spain, there is a broad selection of destinations, with versatile, multipurpose venues for meetings, all equipped with the latest technology. You have a choice of more than 50 conference halls and convention centres, located in iconic and avant-garde buildings, as well as auditoriums, trade fair centres and alternative venues like museums, castles and theatres. In this regard, you can obtain further information from
the APCE (Spanish Association of Conference Centres) and the AFE (Spanish Trade Fairs Association).
Our excellent professionals in the MICE sector ensure a high level of satisfaction among attendees: from the secretarial function for a conference to the provision of essential complementary services (audiovisual, catering, assembly, transport, etc.).
Without a doubt, here you will find the professionalism, atmosphere and the right services to create a spectacular, highly productive event that is increasingly committed to social and environmental sustainability. Some of the most significant events and conferences in a number of sectors are held in Spain, and the figures speak for themselves: every year more than 20,000 events and conferences of all types are held in Spain.
The wide-ranging and renovated hotel infrastructure in Spain is internationally renowned. Choose what best suits your needs, with a wide range of 4 and 5 star hotel accommodation options, including almost one hundred Paradores de Turismo, strategically located in both restored historic buildings and modern constructions.
There are great opportunities for combining work and leisure or organising incentive travel. Bleisure travel in Spain is a growing trend. There are endless opportunities here in this friendly, hospitable country, so those attending your event can enjoy a perfect blend of work and free time. Spain has also become a favourite destination for remote work and more and more com-
panies are placing their workers here, where the environment and quality of life favour productivity and well-being.
Our main cities all have extraordinary museums, unique cultural agendas and guaranteed night-time entertainment. Our beaches and the number of hours of sunshine per year (an average of 2,500 across the country) guarantee a pleasant and festive stay. All this, together with the natural wealth of 16 national parks, world-famous gastronomy and the chance to enjoy openair sports make Spain an unbeatable destination for incentive travel.
Choose Spain for your meetings, conferences and incentive travel and you can't go wrong. You'll find so many advantages and facilities, professionals with proven experience and an ideal environment, so the participants are bound to be completely satisfied. No matter how hard you try, you won't find another destination that matches what Spain has to offer.
Open and cosmopolitan, the capital of Spain offers endless possibilities and has been recognised by the World Travel Awards for several years running for being the best destination in the world for meetings and conferences.
The city’s suitability for MICE tourism is best demonstrated by its history of hosting major events like ESMO (European Society for Medical Oncology Conference), WOBI (World Business Forum), WATMC (World Air Traffic Management Congress) and FITUR (International Tourism Fair). In fact, the city is always ranked among the top 10 by
the International Congress & Convention Association.
The city is the transport hub that connects with the rest of the country, whether by plane, high-speed train or by road, and it has an airport with flights to some 200 destinations worldwide.
Here you'll have the support and assessment offered by the Madrid Convention Bureau (MCB), a member of the Best Cities Global Alliance, which promotes excellence in the organisation of major conferences, as well as numerous agencies and associations which will help you organise your event.
In addition to its great infrastructure for organising conferences, conventions and incentive trips, it also has an attractive artistic and cultural heritage. In fact, Madrid offers an incomparable route: The Landscape of Light, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site and made up of the Paseo del Prado – where the Prado Museum, one of the largest art museums in the world, is located – the Retiro park and the Jerónimos neighbourhood. The famous Gran Vía, which has become Madrid's Broadway, and historic neighbourhoods like Madrid de los Austrias are just some of the endless attractions of this city, which is also one of the cities in the world to have the most trees.
By day, the city offers hundreds of shops that cater to all trends: From
the most exclusive shops on the "Golden Mile" and Las Salesas, to more avant-garde businesses in the Chueca-Malasaña-Fuencarral district. At night, Madrid never sleeps. Nightlife is supported by a circuit of theatres, live music venues and a wide range of clubs, bars and nightclubs.
Madrid has more than 27 Michelinstarred restaurants and 39 five-star hotels, making it the fifth city in the world with the greatest presence of international chains.
All of this has contributed to Madrid standing out for the high level of satisfaction expressed by both attendees and conference organisers.

Seville also has an excellent transportation network, thanks to the high-speed train – which, in 1992, made it the first Spanish city with a train connection to Madrid – its international airport and a modern river port that can welcome cruise ships.
In recent years its position as a preferential MICE destination has been strengthened, making it the venue for important events like Aerospa-
ce & Defense Meetings and the Conference on Cardiovascular Disease.
Seville has endless attractions. It is a city full of history and it is the perfect size for strolling around such historical features as the Plaza de España, the Real Alcázar, the María Luisa Park and the Fine Arts Museum
There are numerous "tablaos flamencos" in the city but the most authen-
tic ones where you can best enjoy this typically Spanish music are to be found in the Triana neighbourhood. The best atmosphere in the city can be found in the Alameda de Hércules district and the Santa Cruz and Arenal neighbourhoods.
Gastronomy is another of Seville's undoubted attractions. It fea-
tures simply-prepared, exquisite dishes like "gazpacho" (chilled tomato soup), marinades, salted products and casseroles. Among the most notable establishments are the Michelin-starred restaurants Abantal and Cañabota.

San Sebastián (Euskadi) is a peaceful, elegant city surrounded by beautiful countryside. Its incomparable gastronomic level and its extensive organisational experience, backed by major events such as the Donostia Zinemaldia International Film Festival or the European Molecular Imaging Meeting, make it an ideal destination for the MICE market.
It is easy to get to and from the city by any means of transport: it has up-todate road infrastructure, excellent rail connections both national and international via the French TGV high-speed train, as well as its own airport with connections to Madrid and Barcelona. In addition, it is less than an hour's drive from two other international airports (Bilbao and Biarritz)
The white sandy beaches are ideal for enjoying the sun and the sea. The different neighbourhoods are just waiting for you to take a stroll and admire beautiful Belle Époque buildings, like the Victoria Eugenia Theatre and the City Hall. The city is full of culture, whether in its museums or in the film, jazz and classical music festivals that make up a very attractive cultural agenda.
San Sebastián enjoys a varied night life, with the lively "Parte Vieja" (Old Town), the pedestrian street of Reyes Católicos, ideal for a cocktail on one of the terraces, and the Gros neighbourhood, where there are numerous bars where you can relax and have a chat.
If there is one thing that San Sebastián/Donostia is famous for, it is its pintxos, delicious miniature bites that express the creativity of its gastronomy. Avant-garde cuisine, one of the city's hallmarks, is represented by renowned chefs such as Pedro Subijana, Juan Mari and Elena Arzak and Martín Berasategui. It is also home to the Basque Culinary Centre, a cutting-edge centre for culinary education.
The popular ritual of txotx is enjoyed between January and April: Cider houses open their doors to the public to offer seasonal cider accompanied by a traditional menu. In the txakoli wineries, with the tours and activities they organise,
you can discover the secrets of typical Basque white wine.
