A different kind of site visit
One lucky meeting planner will enjoy the Concert Experience as part of a site visit to Grand Rapids, LinkedIn’s #1 U.S. City on the Rise. Experience Grand Rapids – Northstar Stella Award-winner for the Midwest’s Best DMO in 2024 – will introduce the winner to the city and its meetings infrastructure.
If you win, we’ll reach out beforehand to discuss your professional needs and personal interests, so we can customize a site experience especially for you. (Listening – really listening – to meeting planners is what won us the Stella Award!)
