GOVERNMENT CONFERENCES, MEETINGS & EVENTS

When you are looking for a Southwestern destination that is affordable, authentic in its architecture and cultures and offers great outdoor experiences with a totally different look, select Albuquerque for your government conferences.

Albuquerque has several hotel districts, all within 20 minutes of the airport. Many hotels offer a distinct atmosphere that allow the attendees to immerse themselves in the rich culture and hospitable charm of the city. With over 17,000 hotel rooms in the Albuquerque area and meeting facilities with superior government conference services, no meeting is too large.

Experience a revitalized city with over 300 years of history

Albuquerque stands with one foot in the past, one foot in the present and both eyes on the future. Home to some of the nation's finest high-tech research facilities, Sandia National Laboratory, Air Force Research Laboratory and the University of New Mexico, Albuquerque is leading the way in technology transfer.
