The Spanish Business Travel Association (IBTA) recently held a workshop in Malaga, where they visited and learned first hand about the city's infrastructure for MICE purposes, along with Malaga Convention Bureau and Turismo Costa del Sol. We already talked about the IBTA a few months ago, when they organised the National Congress of Business Travel.

Malaga is one of the favourite MICE destinations within Spain, with more than 300 events in 2018, that gathered over 100,000 visitors

MICE tourism represents one of the strategic fields of tourism in Malaga and Costa del Sol, with more than 300 events in 2018, that gathered over 100,000 visitors and an estimated economic impact of 400M €.

Also, there are more than 175 4* and 5* hotels in Malaga, many of them offering meeting spaces as well.

Malaga is one of the favourite MICE destinations within Spain, with British and Germans as main organising nationalities, as well as Spanish nationals. French, Scandinavians and North Americans (both US and Canada) follow closely.

Malaga airport is the 3rd busiest airport in continental Spain just after Madrid and Barcelona, flying to more than 100 destinations worldwide -most of them within Europe. Malaga is also linked with most of the main Andalusian and Spanish cities by high-speed train.

Amazing service from Carolina at Meridional Events. From the first time we contacted Carolina to the completion of our event, the communication and arrangements were first class.

We are certainly hoping to be able to work with her again in the future. Thanks to the team from all at Chase Buchanan.

They are an agency specialized in creating experiences adapted to groups.

They knew how to balance and keep everyone happy by offering us a wide variety of activities. Here lies the difference from the rest of the agencies.

Truly a very complete and exclusive agency.
