The number of visitors to Vigo attending conferences, trade fairs and conventions makes this one of the fastest growing sectors in the city.

Vigo has a wide variety of facilities to cater for all needs when organizing conferences, meetings, trade fairs, product presentations and other events that require a specific venue.

The Trade Fair Centre (Instituto Ferial de Vigo) is the main conference venue for professionals from all over northwest Spain as well as from abroad. With over a million visitors to date, this innovative and dynamic venue is a guarantee of success for the professional who wishes to grow and develop, and face new challenges.

Construction has recently commenced on a new Auditorium and Conference Centre which is a great addition to the city’s intense cultural life. It is hoped that this new venue will become a symbol of the modern Vigo.

Conference centres are located all over the city and offer all kinds of facilities for conferences, presentations, meetings, talks, and other events. A particularly unusual and interesting venue, given its location and use, is the open air amphitheatre in Castrelos Park (Auditorio de Castrelos).

There are also many smaller conference venues with audiovisual facilities available for congresses, seminars, educational courses and so on. It is this range of venues that has made Vigo, our Olive City, a reference throughout Spain for conferences while it gradually loses its image as an industrial metropolis and becomes a tourist destination.
