The Canary Islands
The Canary Islands: Key Regions
Tenerife – Tenerife offers one of the Canary Islands' strongest combinations of conference infrastructure, hotels, distinctive venues and incentive experiences. The island can accommodate programmes ranging from corporate meetings to larger conventions, with facilities in both Santa Cruz and the southern resort areas.
Gran Canaria – Gran Canaria combines the business infrastructure of Las Palmas with major resort areas such as Maspalomas and Meloneras. The island has dedicated congress facilities, a strong hotel base and an established MICE industry supported by the Gran Canaria Convention Bureau.
Lanzarote – Lanzarote's volcanic landscapes, vineyards, architecture and distinctive venues provide a strong setting for incentive programmes and smaller corporate events.
Fuerteventura – Fuerteventura is particularly suited to incentive groups looking to combine resort accommodation with beaches, sailing, watersports, team activities and outdoor experiences.
La Palma – La Palma offers a quieter alternative for groups looking for nature, outdoor activities and a more distinctive island experience.
La Gomera and El Hierro – For smaller groups seeking something away from the main MICE destinations, La Gomera and El Hierro offer opportunities for nature-led incentives and highly tailored programmes.
