Is your professional organization planning a national or regional conference? Consider hosting it in Omaha. Not only will you deliver an exceptional experience to your attendees, but you’ll make a positive impact on your community.

Tourism, including folks traveling for meetings and conferences, brings more than 14 million visitors to Omaha annually, generating $1.5 billion in spending at hotels, restaurants, attractions and retail shops. This revenue directly supports local businesses and helps create jobs – one in every 29 in Douglas County. You can contribute to the city’s economic growth and well-being by choosing Omaha as a meeting destination.

Omaha stands out as a premier destination for meetings – and it’s only getting better. More than $8 billion in exciting new developments make Omaha a vibrant and dynamic gathering place. The city’s unique attractions, affordability and welcoming spirit make it an ideal destination.
