For most conference attendees, who are traveling, they are left with some free time on their hands to fill. This may be just evening hours, or it could also extend into the weekend or days off during the week for travel time. For your conference to truly be successful, the entire trip should be a positive, well-rounded event for all of your attendees.

A location that provides these options, from cultural opportunities to unique outdoor activities and scenery, is just as important to the overall success of your conference.
