Poconos Meetings Planning Tips

Start researching from the comfort of your computer: our interactive meetings facilities page allows you to filter locations and venues that fit your event’s needs and budget. Area resorts come equipped with high-speed wireless Internet, state-of-the-art audiovisual equipment and fantastic amenities such as free parking, fine dining, professional spas, fitness centers and renowned golf courses on-site.

Meeting venues in the Poconos are constantly upgrading their offerings: the full-service, four-star diamond Mount Airy Casino Resort recently expanded their meeting facilities, which can now accommodate 750 guests seated or 1,200 standing, with upgrades to the sophisticated rooms and executive suites as well. New renovations doubled the size of the Kalahari Convention Center, which now covers 205,000 square feet with 18 new meeting rooms (bringing the total to 33), a sleek, 38,000+ square foot main ballroom/exhibit space, an exclusive executive conference center for up to 400 guests and more. Watch our video below and get a feel for what your next meeting could feel like.

There’s nothing like walking through a space in person. Once you’ve completed preliminary research online, our PMCVB team can set up site tours so that you can view Pocono meeting and convention facilities for yourself. We’ll schedule your visits and set up itineraries based on your requirements. Many of our members are independent and can be more aggressive on pricing. Our properties will also provide sales kits for an extensive overview of their offerings.

From attraction and transportation information to collateral materials and more: our PMCVB staff can continue to lend a hand in a variety of ways after you’ve booked your event.

By ground or air, attendees have a variety of transportation options as they make their way to the Pocono Mountains, and it’s a short one to three hour trip for those coming from Northeastern United States metropolitan hubs. Six interstate highways, I-80, I-81, I-84, I-78, I-380 and I-476, make the Pocono Mountains region quick and easy to reach. Transportation services like Martz Bus and Pocono Day Tripper provide chartered trips between New York City and the Poconos. While in the region, getting around is painless with rideshare and taxi services.

Don’t just sit in a seminar all day, get outside and bond with your team. Take advantage of the beauty of our natural surroundings: bundle your meetings with exciting team building exercises and get more out of your Pocono Mountains experience. From outdoor adventure courses to indoor escape rooms, local properties offer a wide variety of activities and attractions for groups of 10 or more. Coworkers will have the opportunity to learn more about each other in a fun and out-of-the-box setting. The corporate culture you build in the Pocono Mountains will return with your group to the office, giving your team fresh ideas and renewed energy.
