A city of events!
Fecha 30-05-21
Bogotá continues to stand out as a world-class destination. Its excellent business climate, versatile infrastructure, and exceptional combination of tradition and modernity make it one of the most attractive cities for hosting events and developing business opportunities.
More and more, Bogotá is taking top positions in the corporate tourism industry across the region—and rightly so. It is the most competitive city in a country that, in the first quarter of the year, was recognized by U.S. tour operators as one of the most attractive destinations of the year, alongside Egypt and Croatia.
According to the Bogotá Convention Bureau, our city has five key characteristics that make it one of the world’s leading capitals for events and business. The first is its strategic location—the gateway to Latin America—which makes it easily accessible to the world, with direct connections to 26 countries. Its connectivity is also noteworthy: according to Skytrax, El Dorado International Airport is the Best Airport in South America, serving more than 30 million passengers annually.
In addition, Bogotá offers a broad hotel portfolio, featuring the world’s leading chains—such as Hilton Bogotá Corferias, located in Latin America’s first Fairs, Events, and Conventions District, comprising over 360,000 m² of world-class event spaces. This modern and versatile infrastructure includes Corferias Bogotá, one of the region’s most important fairgrounds, and Ágora Bogotá, recognized as South America’s Leading Convention Centre, according to the latest World Travel Awards.
Lastly, the city’s exceptional business climate stands out, supported by a legal and regulatory framework that facilitates commercial activity. Major national and international companies find in Bogotá a market of over 10 million people—making it the second-best city in Latin America for business environments.
Bogotá offers highly competitive advantages for the meetings and events industry, and we take pride in seeing these strengths continue to grow—enhancing our presence in an ever-expanding global market.
