Mazatlán, the Mexican beach destination on the Pacific Coast, has established itself as an international destination for incentives, meetings, congresses and conventions. The city offers modern infrastructure, well-established transportation routes to and from the airport, and a range of services and facilities offered by the local hotels and convention center, Mazatlán International Center, for large conferences. This destination has become a popular choice for business travelers and professionals, who are looking to combine a beach town experience with business meetings.
Mazatlán’s location also works in its favor as a MICE destination. Its proximity and year-round flights to and from major airport hub cities in North America, such as Los Angeles, Phoenix, Houston, Dallas, Toronto and Calgary, facilitates travel and trade with American and Canadian professionals. Additionally, Mazatlán is only a one-and-a-half-hour flight from Mexico City. The city offers access to Arizona and Texas via highways. The city is also a port of call for major cruise lines.
Located within the tourist zone at Marina Mazatlán, the Mazatlán International Center stands out as one of the top three venues in the country. This venue has been nationally recognized for its functional and innovative architecture. It has 18 rooms spread across three levels and can host up to 5,000 attendees for the main ballroom. This venue is also suitable for exhibitions and conferences. Additionally, it offers a business center that accommodates up to 20 people, along with 10 hectares for open-air exhibitions and outdoor concerts of up to 10,000 people.
The destination is home to dozens of other venues, including The Observatory 1873, which provides hilltop ocean and city views; and the 140-year-old neoclassical Ángela Peralta Theater, which is used for important cultural and artistic events, such as the Mazatlán Cultural Festival and the Spring Season Festival.
Mazatlán also offers a range of activities for participants to discover the destination. Visitors can enjoy water sports, cultural excursions, and local cuisine.
