CHAPTER 3. COMMITMENT OF THE NICE COTE D’AZUR AIRPORTA bona-fide gateway to the region, the Nice Côte d’Azur Airport is a major tourism actor for the destination. The airport receives more than 11 million passengers and is one of the delegates’ first points of contact with Nice. Given the importance of this welcome, the airport undertakes to support the organisation of large-scale events by reserving advertising space devoted to the event in the two terminals and by helping to welcome delegates in the context of service contracts defining the use of «Welcome Areas». It therefore undertakes to facilitate the arrival of Business Events visitors through:

• welcome areas,

• signage in the event colours,

• welcome messages on large screens,

• personalised welcome,

• priority access for coaches providing transfers on the basis of current conditions

Committed to promoting the destination, the Nice Côte d’Azur Airport offers a ‘Welcome Package’, which aims to facilitate the setting up and welcome of major events.

This package is designed for any new congress of at least 2000 participants, contracting with the destination for three years consecutive or off-season, between November and March, and will offer the organisers and their participants, increased visibility at the airport, discounts in shops as well as « speedy-boarding ».

The Convention Bureau will handle your requests, please contact [email protected]

CHAPTER 4. COMMITMENT OF THE NICE CONVENTION AND VISITORS BUREAUThe Nice Convention Bureau, part of the Convention and Visitors Bureau, is an essential player in Nice’s meetings industry. It plays an important role in developing conferences and business events activity and in implementing, in cooperation with its partners, a hosting policy for this type of events. It acts as a facilitator for event organisers and as a coordinator for its partners.
