VisitGainesville offers a Conference Grant that, depending on the size of your conference, can reimburse the organization hundreds to thousands of dollars for meeting expenses. With the two cycles each year, Spring and Fall, there is ample opportunity for the meeting professional to apply for this very worthwhile benefit.

Additionally VisitGainesville offers the fun Historic Downtown Gainesville Dine-Arounds for the conference attendees to enjoy while they are in Gainesville for their meeting. This makes a fun, memorable evening indeed.
