For Meetings, Incentive Travel, Convention & Events

More than ever before, the Yukon is on the radar for event planners looking for a unique meeting destination—there’s a buzz when delegates find out they’re bound for Canada’s Yukon. Topping the list of what catches the attention of business travellers is the Yukon’s superb menu of pre- and post-trip activities.

The best business gatherings are about creating the ideal mix of work and pleasure, and Yukoners seem to have mastered this balance. In the Yukon you can meet in the morning, take to the mountains for an afternoon of team-building, and return to the city with plenty of time for dinner and a round of golf under the midnight sun. Or, you can take your entire event outdoors with the help of tents, caterers and Yukon’s breathtaking scenery.

Groups heading north of sixty can expect all the big-city amenities and meeting facilities for up to 800 guests coupled with Yukon’s stunning natural phenomena and famous adventures. The midnight sun and northern lights add a unique twist to meetings and events, and many business travellers can’t resist the lure of a few extra days of rafting, canoeing, dogsledding or heli-hiking.
