As the year progresses into its final quarter, the Palma Congress Center is poised for an exciting period ahead, anticipating a surge in activity thanks to more than 20 events scheduled during this period, including five major congresses. These gatherings are expected to bring together a diverse array of professionals and experts, collectively totaling over 23,000 attendees.

By hosting such a diverse range of events, the Palma Congress Center not only strengthens its position as a leading MICE venue but also contributes significantly to the local economy by generating tourism during the off-peak season. This influx of visitors will benefit local businesses, hotels, restaurants, transportation and the broader community. This dynamic approach is vital in attracting visitors, stimulating economic growth, and showcasing the region as a year-round destination for meetings and events.

On the other hand, these gatherings will provide a platform for networking, knowledge exchange, and collaboration among professionals and experts from around the world.

The five congresses to be held in the coming months are:

• XXXIV GEDET Meeting (Spanish Aesthetic and Therapeutic Dermatology Group): 5, 6 and 7 October 2023.
• XXI FAME Congress (Spanish Federation of Midwives Congress) and II ABC Congress (Balearic Association of Midwives): 26 to 28 October 2023.
• 53rd Congress of the Spanish Society of Nephrology (SEN): 11 to 13 November 2023
• XII ASEBIR Congress (Association for the Study of Reproductive Biology): 15, 16 and 17 November 2023
• Congress of Spanish Hoteliers 2023 (CEHAT): 22nd to 24th November 2023

In addition, the Palma Congress Center will be the venue for the Informal Ministerial Meeting on Tourism to be held on the 30th and 31st of October 2023. This meeting, part of the activities scheduled during the Spanish Presidency of the Council of the European Union in the second half of 2023, will bring together tourism ministers from all over Europe.

This period will also see events such as the Unitour University Orientation Fair (23 October), the closing ceremony of the 12th edition of the Evolution Mallorca International Film Festival (24 October) and the TaPalma 2023 Competition (20 November).

In addition, as in previous years, a high volume of company’s events and Christmas dinners are expected in December, which could bring an estimated two thousand additional attendees to the quarter.
