Being #VeteransDay, we'll salute members of the #military and express our appreciation for their service to our country.#eventprofs serving the "M" in the #SMERF #meetings and #events market often look to utilize sites and venues that resonate with those affiliated to the military. The historic @battleshipmissouri in #honolulu is often the site of choice for groups that visit #hawaii. Settings above deck as well as below, in addition to spacious pier using the #battleship as a backdrop are available for groups of varying sizes...@oahuvb #Oahu @gohawaii @anthologygrouphawaii #Navy @usnavy #Marines @marines #Army @usarmy #AirForce @usairforce

Looking back to @ilove_lucerne -Two years ago toda

Looking back to @ilove_lucerne -Two years ago today, #FandDmag had an opportunity to visit #luzern, a #Swiss lakeside city, one hour from #Zurich and a gateway to the #Alps. Our story appears in the 2019 SuperBook issue.The #trolley is one of many exhibits at the @verkehrshaus der #Schweiz that depict the #history of #transportation in #Switzerland from its earliest days looking into the future. The #museum has multiple venues indoors and out for group functions and meetings. Also in site is a fully stocked @lindt store in which visitors can design their own #chocolate creations. ..@scib_switzerland @myswitzerland #Suisse #Lucerne #eventprofs #meetingprofs #incentive #travel

Looking up from the depths of the @wtc memorial pools, five years ago this week. Here's to hoping that the hateful ideologies that led to the tragic events of #911 are one step closer to disappearing with the #peace accords brokered by the #USA between @israel and #Bahrain.

3,500 years of #glassart is on display at the @corningmuseum of #glass in #UpstateNewYork. In addition to #glassmaking exhibitions (image 2), its collections include pieces that span the millennia from ancient #Egypt (image 1), the #Greek & #Roman (image 4) empires, centuries of European glasswork through modern times, including contemporary #artists like #chihuly (image 3). The #museum has both indoor and outdoor spaces making it a versatile #venue for #meetings & #events. .The surrounding region has an abundance of natural beauty, is rich in #history, and is home to a broad array of facilities with wide open spaces, all within hours of #NYC. Groups may choose to extend their stays to take advantage of nearby #FingerLakes and #NewYork State #Parks that provide opportunities for #hiking, #biking, #fishing & #boating. Currently, the region is particularly ideal to avoid quarantine restrictions for in-state #meeting & #event planning as well as when post-#COVID19 planning resumes.#flx @iloveny @visitflx @mpigny @nypcma @corningflx #archaeology #archeology #egyptian #FandDmag

#FlashbackFriday to #Louisville, #Kentucky where #FandDmag covered the opening of the reimagined @kyconvention Center #KICCoff two years ago.#eventprofs have found the city to be very #event friendly both inside the modernized facility and throughout the destination. In addition headquarter hotels - the @omnilou & @hyattlou - off-site venues include the #whiskey distilleries along the #urbanbourbontrail, @churchilldowns, the @speed_museum and @sluggernation factory & #museum to name but a few...#architecture #skyscraper #meetingprofs @mpikbc @se_pcma

You never know when or where you’ll find #love. We sure didn’t expect to find it in a #StatenIsland corporate office complex. The #sculpture is one of many #art works on the properties of the #Nicotra Group, whose holdings include @nicotrasballroom, a premier site for #meetings and #events for #eventprofs whose groups @visitstatenisland.On that note, the staff of #FandDmag extend sincere comgratulations to our former editorial intern Aryeh Korn on his marriage this week.#NewYork #wedding #weddingvenues #eventprofs #meetingprofs @nycgo_press #staysafe @fmgmikec #red

Please join us in wishing #congratulations and "hats off" to the #ClassOf2020, whose unique final semester will be one for the "books." Among the graduates are our photo-shy #FandDmag intern Aryeh - whose editorial assignments over the years have included stories on #Chicago, #NewOrleans, #Barcelona and #Iceland. Part of his celebratory dinner included this special edition #chocolatechipcookie based #dessert, designed by @dessertsbydasi. . .#graduation #chocolate #eventprofs#meetingprofs @meetinchicago @visitneworleans @visitbarcelona @inspiredbyiceland #StaySafe! #sprinkles

#FlashbackFriday to @pcmahq's #PCMACL in #SanFranc

#FlashbackFriday to @pcmahq's #PCMACL in #SanFrancisco, earlier this year at the newly expanded #FandDmag Prime Site Award-winning @mosconecenter. A great destination will often translate into higher attendance and longer stays in the region. Case in point: This amazing photograph was taken by @binyaminkornphotography, #cycling to Rodeo Beach in the @goldengatenps National Recreation Area, across the #GoldenGate Bridge in Marin County, post-event.We're looking forward to #travel and #meeting again soon. Until then, wishing all #eventprofs and #meetingprofs a most pleasant #MemorialDay weekend. #staysafe!

The #flowers lining #NYC’s #ParkAvenue in our last photo reminded us of other walkways adorned with pre-winter flowers. These photos were taken during our hike along #Switzerland’s @montreuxriviera, where we walked from #Montreaux to #Vevey spending as much time as we could along Lake Geneva. While the weather did not exactly cooperate - it was misty and rainy, and why are museums closed in Mondays? - we nevertheless found many more reasons to fall #inlovewithswitzerland. ..@myswitzerland @myvaud #suisse #lakegeneva #travelphotography #business #events #travel #tourism #meetingprofs #traveltuesday

Much of the #energy of large cities like #NYC and #HongKong come from the diversity of the sheer volume of people that ensure that their city "never sleeps." .Pausing at a crossing light on #NYC's #ParkAvenue malls provided a brief momentary break from the seemingly non-stop world of the workplace. While on this #COVID19 work from home "pause," we have to and urge others to make sure to stop and smell the coffee - or #flowers - and remember to #stayhealthy and #staysafe as we #stayhome....@fundforparkavenue #seeyourcity #makeitnyc #newyorkcity #eventprofs #meetingprofs #colors

We had plenty of room to qualify for #socialdistancing standards when #hiking through @brycecanyonnps back in September following @imex_group’s #IMEX19 in @vegas’ @sandsexpo.. .(Not too long ago, pre-#covid19 and when #wewillmeetagain,) a destination is often assessed on its nearby sites and attractions, in order to increase attendance. #eventprofs/ #meetingprofs will find a plethora of activities in #LasVegas and lots of #nature’s bounty within a few hours for those that can extend their stay. Just be in shape if you plan to trek through into the canyons... Getting back up (image 4) can take the wind out of you!#nature #business #events #travel #redrocks @visitutah #Utah #brycecanyon #discoverbryce #nationalpark #nationalparks
