Prepping for #MardiGras in #NOLA....We had feet on the ground in #NewOrleans earlier this week, with one of our college interns sending back photos from some of the child-friendly floats that will be featured in festivities next week (images 2-5). He also enjoyed and shared a photo of his ice coffee & #beignets at the original @cafedumonde (image 6) in the historic French Quarter..Besides the #Cajun #Carnival celebrations #eventprofs have a lot to look forward to in the #BigEasy. A new airport terminal greets visitors; development of new hotels continues, with historic properties like the @nopsihotel being joined by new luxury hotels including @fourseasonsnola coming later this year; the newly opened @sazerachouse, a #museum and #distillery, provides an interactive experience to groups, and the #FandDmag Prime Site Award-winning @mccno revitalization will reshape the riverfront with #shopping and #entertainment, supplementing the vast indoor and outdoor function spaces of @mardigrasworld (highlighted during @iaee_hq's 2018 #ExpoExpo)..#onetimeinnola #masks @visitneworleans #meetingprofs #pastry @batman #batman #joker @thesimpsons @toystory @themuppets #muppets #buzzlightyear #fattuesday

#Runners have filled up on carbs in anticipation of the #Miami #Marathon this morning. Both public and independent #running #events are a means through which #eventprofs can raise awareness of their groups' mission. @themiamimarathon is becoming increasingly popular, attracting visitors from around the globe, particularly #athletes looking to escape the #winter climate.Charitable sponsorships of runners as well #advertising - often reinforced on joggers' clothing - are mutually beneficial ways of spreading awareness of groups' causes. #meetingprofs at @pcmahq had an early morning 5K during #pcmacl this year, and the @imex_group's #imexrun has been a favorite #event for years. In that vein, #FandDmag is proud to salute the efforts of all those #running for #children's #charity @kidsofcourage's @raceforcourage marathon #fundraiser in @miamiandbeaches. #csr

Even on a cloudy #winter day with #snow still on the ground and speckling the cliffsides, the #GrandCanyon leaves visitors in awe; trekking around the South Rim, the views will leaves an impression that last a lifetime and the surreal vastness can only be understood when experienced.#Meeting in #Arizona often entails a day (or more) trip to the @grandcanyonnps, (which happens to be celebrating its centennial year). In addition to extending one's stay in the region for leisure #travel, #incentive & #business #meetingprofs / #eventprofs can plan excursions for their attendees from bases in major locations such as the greater #Phoenix area, as well as closer cities such as #Flagstaff or #Sedona. ..#traveltuesday #nature #nationalpark #event #events #meetings #hiking #hikeaz #redrocks

#Sedona continues to be a popular destination for

#Sedona continues to be a popular destination for #meeting and incentive groups. Its location in the heart of #Arizona's #RedRock country is clearly a draw. Be it the sheer beauty of the formations whose colors appear to change depending on the lighting (observe the contrast in images 1 & 2), #hiking through over 300 miles of trails in the nearby national forest lands, or its #art scene - the annual @sedonaartsfest attracts thousands - the small town has some large offerings to the #eventplanner..Resorts like @laubergesedona are ideal to take in all the region has to offer. Serenely situated along Oak Creek in the shadows of monolithic formations, the property has a balance of all the region's graces. Multiple outdoor spaces include lawns set either creekside (image 7) or perched along the mountainside (image 10) making for a memorable setting for a #wedding or #networking #event. Terraces can extend an indoor function (image 6) into the green spaces where sounds of the roaring creek provide a sense of place..#artwork welcomes guests to the property (image 4) with #sculptures and #paintings from a local gallery exhibited both outside and in the cottages throughout the spacious grounds. Outside of dining and spa options, activities for guests after dark include roasting #smores in firepits (image 5) along the creek as well as stargazing with a staff astronomer. From what we experienced, attendees will have a most memorable and rejuvenating stay when they @visitsedona...#eventprofs #events #meetingprofs #meetings #weddings @visit_arizona #hikeaz @u.s.forestservice @jpublicrelations @goldenstein_gallery #nature

Chilling in the Red Rocks... #Sedona, #Arizona is known for its geological formations, monolithic towers of red rock surrounded by mountainous national forests. Its stunning natural beauty annually draws myriads of tourists from around the globe. .Another reason to @visitsedona is its rich heritage of #arts and #culture. #art galleries fill the city, the @sedonagalleryassociation stages monthly artist showcases, and festivals including the annual @sedonaartsfest solidifies the destination's longstanding reputation as a haven for #artists.#Luxury resort @laubergesedona celebrates the city's artistic, creative spirit featuring #artwork across its grounds. One such piece (image), a bronze #sculpture entitled "Pastoral Dreamer" by @davidlphelps allows guests the opportunity to experience the city's vibrant arts scene without leaving the property. #eventprofs #meetingprofs and the #wedding #eventplanner considering #events, #meetings or retreats in Sedona will find the L'Auberge has a broad array of indoor and outdoor spaces on site to inspire and accommodate parties large and small..#traveltuesday @goldenstein_gallery @jpublicrelations @visit_arizona #travel #tourism

Exploring the City By the Bay, after a day of sessions at @pcmahq #pcmacl... En route to #biking across #SanFrancisco's #GoldenGateBridge, we stopped to view the structures surrounding the @palaceoffineartstheatre. The #historic #Greek-themed site is a popular attraction that has hosted art exhibitions since its construction over a century ago for the Panama-Pacific Exhibition.. .The intricate #design of the craftsmen of the era is awe-inspiring. Understandably, the area is sought out location for #events, #weddings and #wedding group/family #photography. @sfmeetings website notes that @starwars films' creator @lucasfilm used the site as inspiration for the #architecture on the world of Naboo from whence @natalieportman's character, Queen/Senator Amidala hailed. .#meetinsf @onlyinsf @visitcalifornia #business #event #travel #tourism #eventplanner #eventprofs #meetingprofs#StarWars

Exploring #SanFrancisco after a day at @pcmahq's #pcmacl....Following a #cablecar ride (image 3) down to (a #kosher dining establishment on) Fisherman's Wharf and a look around @ghirardellisquare (image 4)our team headed out to cross the #GoldenGateBridge using #SanFrancisco's popular #bike sharing services. Even though @uber's @jumpbyuber #bicycle (image 1) petered out on Ben after arriving at Marin County's Vista Point, and David took a call along the way on his @lyft #baywheels (image 2), Ben was a sport using the time parked to enjoy the views..@sfmeetings #meetinsf @onlyinsf @visitcalifornia #California #business #events #traveltuesday #eventprofs #meetingprofs #travel @krispykreme @citypass #citypass @lyft @baywheels

Following @pcmahq's #pcmacl at #sanfrancisco's @mosconecenter, many #eventprofs & #meetingprofs extended their stays to @visitnapavalley and @sonomacounty venues that create the perfect pairing of the #BayArea and #WineCountry. .The @meritagecollection's properties include two unique resort hotels set amidst acres of #vineyards in #California's #Napa Valley. Its Meritage branded property is home to @trinitascellars, whose #grapes are grown on the rolling hills beyond the resort. The #Vineyard Deck (photographed after a rainy morning image 4) is a favorite spot for outdoor #events and #weddings while multiple ballrooms' flexible spaces can be used to host an #event, exhibition or reception. To close out the day's #meetings or conferences, it's sports bar is also home to a #bowling alley. .The @vistacollina Resort located across the road houses #winetasting rooms for a number of local #wineries and breweries around its village green, as well as a market and kitchen that can host #cooking & #baking exhibitions and #teambuilding activities. The lawn area shown here (image 5) can be utilized both for leisure and networking activities or cleared for an outdoor #event. .@visitcalifornia @sfmeetings #wine #business #tourism #incentive #travel @njfpr

Many #eventprofs & #meetingprofs chose to spend time getting acquainted with the #Napa and #Sonoma Valley regions north of #SanFrancisco following @pcmahq's Convening Leaders conference held at the city's (still) newly expanded @mosconecenter.In addition to visiting #vineyards and #winetasting, our team had a close encounter with #DarthVader - one of the featured works of #jellybean #mosaic #art - at the @jellybellycandyco factory located about 15 minutes outside of Napa. Ronald Reagan, perhaps the nation's most outspoken advocate for jelly beans during his presidency, was a favorite subject of the #artworks. .While the factory tour site is very #child-friendly, #meeting and #conference space is also available, making the attraction ideal for the #children (and #sweettooth) in all of us.@visitnapavalley @sonomacounty @sfmeetings @pcmahq @visitcalifornia #business #tourism #candy #sweets #jellybeans #pcmacl #starwars @starwars #FandDmag

#eventprofs and #meetingprofs will leave their hearts in #SanFrancisco following the closing night's networking #event and #concert at the newly christened @chase_center, an #entertainment venue, home to the region's @warriors @nba #basketball team (image 2)..@sfmeetings Joe D'Alessandro's team got evening rolling, showcasing how the arena could be utilized for visiting conferences. After the venue's spacious passageways (image 3) and food vendor stations (image 4) provided ample room and selections for attendees to dine and mingle, D'Alessandro introduced the city's mayor (image 5) who welcomed those gathered for a @maroon5 #concert (images 1 & 6)..@adamlevine wowed the capacity crowd who sang along with him throughout the night. The new facility and open bar on the arena floor - that was utilized to host @pcmahq's VIP groups - in turn wowed #AdamLevine. In addition to complimenting the #eventplanner design of the arena floor to include a bar, it seemed that perhaps his multiple mentions of the bar might have been implying he wanted a drink!.#music #Maroon5 #FandDmag #FandEMmag #reach

On Sunday afternoon prior to @pcmahq's #pcmaCL opening ceremonies, visiting #eventprofs/#meetingprofs were given an opportunity to loop around #SanFrancisco and across the iconic #GoldenGateBridge as the sun was headed down in the sky. @bigbustours took attendees aboard an open double-decker bus through the city's neighborhoods, passing by historic buildings and popular attractions.@sfmeetings @onlyinsf #travel #tourism #reach #architecture #engineering #bridge #SF #CityHall
