Just an hour’s flight from Dubai, Muscat offers a change of pace – think gorgeous beaches, beautiful architecture and Arabian hospitality. In 2016 the Oman Convention & Exhibition Centre opened, giving Muscat numerous theatres, conference venues and a selection of different hotels.
The downtown business district is close to historical landmarks and ancient souks, and home to some grand hotels perfect for hosting meetings, incentives, conferences and events.
With its Convention Bureau and the Oman Convention & Exhibition Centre, this Arabian Sultanate is a serious contender as a destination for global meetings and events. Surrounded by hills, the capital Muscat sits on the waterfront, boasting some breath-taking beaches.
Ollie Gill, Business Development Manager for Conference Contacts recently visited Muscat for a Meetings & Incentive Forum. Along with 210 other event specialists, Ollie took part in 41 meetings across three days with various destinations across the world ensuring that we remain up to date with the latest openings and refurbishments.
