Anyone can plan a meeting, but it takes talent to turn a busy business trip into a breeze.
Luckily, achieving such a feat isn't as difficult as one might think. With thrilling amusement, breathtaking scenery, abundant wildlife, and endless outdoor recreation, this destination effortlessly transforms any event into an unforgettable experience.
If you want to increase engagement among your attendees, here are some of the key advantages that distinguish Davis County from other meeting destinations.
Create a Scenic Setting
Davis County boasts no shortage of awe-inspiring locations, but few are as perfectly suited for groups as Antelope Island. This "pinch me" destination offers a rare mix of stunning landscapes, outdoor adventures, and incredible wildlife encounters. You'll find yourself on an island in the middle of the Great Salt Lake, surrounded by 360-degree mountain views. Here, visitors can experience unforgettable wildlife sightings, including free-ranging bison, mule deer, bighorn sheep, pronghorn (antelope), and an abundance of bird species, all in a breathtaking natural setting that feels almost dreamlike—yet it's completely real.Choose Convenient, Accessible Venues
Sometimes, accessibility is the name of the game. In Davis County, meeting spaces are always in close proximity to SLC International Airport, making travel to and from the region hassle-free. When it's time to explore, the UTA FrontRunner Commuter Rail can quickly take you through four stops in Davis County. The Midtown Trolley, buses, and ride-sharing services contribute to the ease of exploring the county. See? There's nothing holding you back.Integrate Local Dining & Entertainment
Visitors can cap off a day at the Davis Conference Center with a delectable local dining experience. Visit Rooster's Brewing Co.'s Layton location, a fantastic place for local brews and bites within walking distance of 11 hotels in the conference center district. Or, catch a performance at the Edward A Kenley Centennial Amphitheater in Layton Commons Park—that is, if you're not already expected on stage.Encourage Flexibility & Customization
You already know that planners must be ready to mix and match event and meeting spaces, and Davis County has just the right blend of options. The Davis Conference Center will keep every gathering simple and streamlined to ensure every guest can maneuver from boardroom to ballroom without breaking a sweat. Add a fun twist to a versatile space by meeting at Hill Aerospace Museum at Hill Air Force Base. It's not every day that you can step away from your seat to admire some of the rarest planes in world history.Add Recreational Time to the Agenda
We all know that work and play go hand in hand, and there's plenty of both to go around in the Amusement Capital of Utah. Guests can chase thrills at Lagoon, the largest family-owned amusement park in the United States, or connect with the great outdoors on more than 500 miles of trail—whether they choose to conquer it on foot, horseback, or bike.Shirk the Sunday Scaries.
