How do you mix business and pleasure enough to have everyone scrambling for an invite to your event? You take them to Jamaica!

The preceding Q&A combo is a confident declaration by the Jamaica Tourist Board, as the country revs up promotion of its ‘bleisure’ tourism segment, through its largely untapped MICE market.

Central to the promotion of Jamaica’s ‘bleisure’ tourism and MICE industry is the ultra-modern Montego Bay Convention Centre (MBCC), the largest meeting and conference facility in the English-speaking Caribbean.

The award-winning facility has secured its place at the pinnacle of the MICE industry in the Region, with its 11th consecutive win this year as the Caribbean’s Leading Meetings and Conference Centre at the World Travel Awards, a position it has maintained since becoming operational in July 2011. 

Jamaica, labelled the “Heartbeat of the World” is well-known for its vibrant culture and natural beauty, but we are big on business, and the first-rate facilities and resources at the Montego Bay Convention Centre will make your event planning a breeze.

The Centre offers more than 139,000 square feet of space, designed to accommodate exhibitions, conventions and galas, with fully integrated audio and visual control systems. It also boasts fully equipped smart rooms for virtual and hybrid meetings. 

General Manager, Karron Benjamin says the Centre’s internationally certified event planners are ready to offer professional meeting planning services from conception to execution, while tourism stakeholders will showcase the many magnificent attractions and amenities to bolster the ‘bleisure’ experience in Jamaica.
