A Congress in Tours

A strategic choice for extra large events

Tours, a metropolis surrounded by a wild river.

Place Plumereau, named "One of France's most beautiful place to have a drink" by Lonely Planet.

Tours also boasts of a city hall by Victor Laloux and a tramway designed by Daniel Buren.

A reception at the Opéra de Tours, the "little opera Garnier".

The Convention Center : 20,000m² dedicated to events in the heart of the city.

The City of Tours meets all the requirements to host congresses and offers an easy alternative to major metropolitan cities.

A High speed train station in the city center, a Convention Center opposite the railway station, 1400 hotel rooms within walking distance, the city hall close by and numerous team-building activities available in town (guided tours of the city, gourmet walks, cooking classes, wine tasting, escape games, bike tours) make Tours an ideal destination for extra large events, all on foot.

Responsible, human and qualitative formats, without losing on logistical efficiency, with technically equipped spaces adapted for large-scale events.
