EXPERIENCE BEYOND ORDINARY
GR – Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre, the largest convention centre in Slovenia comprising of 20 multifunctional halls that occupy a surface area of 12,323 square meters, has turned its outdoor area into an ice rink. The amazing Ice Park Lucky was a hotspot for icy incentives like skating, figure skating, team bonding over curling. Those who were looking for a teambuilding activity that actually benefited their team chose a fun winter incentive in Ljubljana. The Ice Park Lucy ran by the leading Slovenian company in the field of skating and rollerblading Lucky Luka, offered a number of relaxing or competing activities on a regular size ice ring as well as fun times on ice slides throughout the whole winter.
EXPERIENCE EXPLORATIONS
Meetings industry can be compared to the world of birds. Like birds, meetings industry professionals know no borders, migrating to several nesting destinations, and some of them coming back. Just like Conventa. The GR -Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre has remained Conventa’s loyal nesting destination since the beginning in 2009. However, Conventa is not the only bird returning here.
Kenes International, which in 2010 brought to the GR – Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre the world congress on autoimmunity with 1200 participants as the congress of the year in Slovenia, is coming back in September 2015 due to its excellent experience. Will the congress from the field of medicine, ESRA – European Society of Regional Anaesthesia Congress, with its 1400 participants from all over the world, again resound from the GR -Ljubljana Exhibition and Convention Centre as the congress of the year in Slovenia?
