INTRACON
Events Director
In May 2019 we held our first event in Lloret de Mar: a 2.5 day convention for 60 Key Leaders of an international pharmaceutical company from 12 European countries: a resounding success, thanks to the support of the Lloret Convention Bureau and having known the destination and its spectacular sales and spaces in advance.
The participants arrived by boat to the beach of the Santa Marta hotel with great desire and breathlessness in front of the unique and picturesque landscape of this space. One of the main advantages of the hotel is its many spectacular rooms and outdoor spaces, and having the hotel exclusively made everything easier. Once seated and after the first meeting the group enjoyed a fun activity on the beach, a unique natural space with no one but our group and, later, they were able to enjoy the cocktail, with live music and a magician on the terrace.
The athletes were well served being able to go for a run on the beach early in the morning and the yoga classes were very well received by a small group of early risers. Breakfast on the terrace was a great start to the day for everyone and with a bit of grief they headed to the meeting room.
A round event with very positive feedback, especially as far as the Hotel, the environment and the different spaces are concerned.
Costa Brava Dance Festival
Director
I would like to thank and send my best wishes to everyone on behalf of the Costa Brava Dance Festival. We’re very happy to be here in Lloret de Mar, in this theatre, which really is perfect for an event like ours, and in such a wonderful town where everybody can feel at home. I would like to thank Lloret de Mar for this opportunity to hold our festival with people from all over the world.

Vice President
In October 2012 the Professional Association of Special Firefighters (APBE) held its first National Technical Days in Lloret de Mar.
We thought of Lloret because it is such a distinctive destination on the Costa Brava. We felt that the people joining us from all over Spain and from as far as Ireland would find it an idyllic place to enjoy their stay while attending our event.
We the organisers, along with the event delegates and their travelling companions, would like to thank the Lloret Convention Bureau for the excellent assistance that it provided to ensure the good organisation and smooth running of our technical days.
We’ll be back, that’s for sure!

FLG
The FLG (Association of Lesbian and Gay Families) chose Lloret to hold the Second European LGTB Families Gathering because it was necessary to find accommodation for many families from all over Europe in a welcoming and family-friendly atmosphere with services for children and their families. The beach was a decisive factor, while the friendly and cooperative attitude of the staff at the Convention Bureau also helped a lot. The result was unsurpassable, a total success in terms of participation. As for those who took part, they stated that it had been excellent.
Thanks Lloret!

D-Company
Director
We presented Lloret and the Costa Brava as a destination for the global presentation of the new Audi A1. The aspects valued most highly by the customer were the quality and facilities of Hotel Alva Park and the proximity to Girona airport, together with the good road connections and dynamic routes. The assistance provided by Lloret Turisme in terms of logistics and its cooperative attitude were key factors in producing an event that surpassed expectations. Once again, we would like to thank you for your valuable help and we hope to return in the near future with other events.

Under the slogan “Todos por la ONCE” (Everyone for the ONCE), Unidad Progresista (UP) held its 23rdCoexistence Days in Lloret de Mar (province of Girona) from 28th October to 1st November 2011. Almost 1,700 members (accompanied by their families) and friends of UP were accommodated in the hotels of the Evenia Olympic Resort & Congress Center and in the Oasis Park hotel. We organised a series of leisure activities for children and adults, along with trips around the area, our usual information assembly and a gathering for all the delegates at which cremat (coffee flamed with rum) and roast chestnuts were served.
The event was also attended by politicians and leading figures in the world of communication. It was a great success in terms of participation and organisation, thanks in no small measure to the collaboration and assistance of the staff at the Lloret Convention Bureau.

Grup Reunions i Ciència
Managing Director
In 2011 we organised the Catalan Conference of Casualty and Emergency Services. When it came to selecting the destination, we took into account the various options offered by Lloret for holding conferences. Several of them fulfilled our requirements. In the end it came down to small details that suited us better in certain aspects. During the selection process we were given every assistance by the highly professional staff of the venues and of the Lloret Convention Bureau. Looking back on the conference I can state that we made the right venue choice with Lloret and the Hotel Guitart Monterey. We’re convinced that Lloret is a good conference destination and we’re looking forward to repeating the experience.

Many thanks to all our partners of TBEX Europe 2015 Costa Brava Catalunya. In particular, the staff at Lloret Turisme worked tirelessly to make our event an incredible success!
They worked together with our team to create innovative and effective solutions for our delegates. His knowledge of the city, the rest of the territory and the local business allowed us to explore everything that Lloret could offer us.
Everyone we contacted during the conference and their office support staff made sure that nothing fell into oblivion. They treated us much more as a family than as customers.
After working in many countries and cities around the world, I highly recommend Lloret De Mar as a wonderful destination for any type of event or meeting and the Convention Bureau as a first class partner in the organization. of this.
Yours faithfully,
