CONVENTIONS/CONFERENCES:

Windsor is no stranger to convention business and has had the opportunity to host many provincial, national, U.S. and international gatherings. With the expansion of our hotel and convention facilities, Windsor is emerging as a choice meeting destination. Here's just a sampling of what past delegates have to say about meeting in Windsor!

“A number of our participants had not considered Windsor as a destination point for holidays prior to their attendance at our seminar. A few eyes were opened to what Windsor has to offer!”

“Our conference included tours of Windsor and area and our out-of-town delegates were most impressed. They loved the heritage conference venues.”

Sandi Villeneuve, President

“Beautiful waterfront and lots of entertainment!”

“Our 3rd annual conference that was held in Windsor was very informative, fulfilling and enjoyable. The collaboration from police, fire and ambulance employees on this tri-services event was key in making this conference a huge success. The support we received from local businesses and the community greatly contributed to the success of our conference.”

Lloyd Burridge, Conference Chair
Society of Municipal Arborists
September 2005

“In talking with the delegates, guests, board members and exhibitors, they all were very pleased with the conference locations and exhibits, and particularly liked the closeness of all the venues, the meals and presentations. Kicking off the conference with a cruise on the river was an excellent way to see the shorelines of Windsor and Detroit as well as meet the other delegates in an informal way. The board members indicated that this was the best conference that they had ever attended. Many of these people have attended over 20 of these conferences and to receive this type of compliment is extraordinary. They indicated that they felt very welcome before even reaching Windsor.”

Joanne Young Evans
Executive Director, 
Registered Practical Nurses Association of Ontario

“I have worked and dealt with many CVB’s in Ontario. None match Windsor’s. The staff is second to none in experience, attitude, resourcefulness, services and flexibility. My staff and delegates were very complimentary about the conference location, the staff they worked with and the food and beverage quality.”

“Our committee received numerous emails congratulating us as well as the City of Windsor for an outstanding effort in hosting a very successful tournament! Comments from parents and coaches suggested that Windsor was a pleasant surprise - lots to see and do – very friendly - and easy to get around.”
