You can have a meeting, or you can have a Meeting. Capital M for Meaningful, Memorable, Monumental. These are the kind of gatherings we host in The Woodlands, an oasis on the water, surrounded by the woods. This destination was created with the visitor in mind from the very beginning. The developers set out to create a place where a traveler is treated with white-glove service like free valet parking at high-end waterfront restaurants, complimentary umbrellas, concierge services, and a hop-on, hop-off trolley that will take you to popular visitor areas like Town Green Park, Hughes Landing, and Market Street.

This is a destination for a relaxing stress-free event surrounded by world-class art, food, wine, and entertainment. Plus, you’ll enjoy the ease of transportation—no traffic jams here.
