If you’re planning on holding a business event in Texas, Houston provides a wide range of entertaining and informational amenities that you can enjoy as part of your conference. The Lone Star state is known for making things bigger and better, so why not do the same with your company’s next event? As one of the major metropolitan areas in the nation, this home to over 6 million people is guaranteed to provide the perfect environment for anything you and your coworkers would like to do.

The great city of Houston can be a great help in creating the most entertaining meetings your company can offer. If you want to hold your event outside, the weather is absolutely perfect to do so at any time, night or day. Constant warm and sunny weather also means that you can make fun activities, such as swimming or a picnic lunch, a central part of your schedule. The Houston Zoo is also located downtown and provides discounts on large group visits, allowing everyone the chance to unwind with their favorite animals while socializing with business associates. The Kemah boardwalk is another wonderful place for coworkers to bond over delicious food and a few drinks.

For events that are to be held indoors, Houston can provide an endless amount of enjoyment inside as well. One of the finest examples is the Museum District, which includes a wide selection of museums and cultural centers within a 1.5 mile radius of Herman Park. You’ll also find the Galleria Mall in Houston, Texas – and one of the nation’s – largest shopping centers. Your attendees will be able to find their favorite stores and restaurants making the entire convention location more appealing and fun.

Houston’s sprawling streets are also home to a long list of community centers, convention halls, universities, and stadiums that can provide the perfect venue for your get together. The University of Houston is just an example of what you can expect to find, filled to the brim with smart classrooms featuring advanced technology with built-in projectors, screens and microphones. Aramark also provides healthy meals within the Fresh Food Dining Company on campus, and can create specialized menus for your event by request. Best of all, overnight accommodations can be made between late-May and early August. If your event is going to be multiple days long, or if you want your guests to have a chance to rest before leaving, this is one of the best options available.
