About the Greater Raleigh CVB
1
We do more than conventions.
GRCVB’ s website, www. visitRaleigh. com, has resources to help plan events of any size— from board retreats to wedding receptions. For example, use the Unique Meeting Site Search to choose a local venue based on capacity, seating, location and type.

We serve more than visitors.
GRCVB’ s professional sales staff works with hundreds of event planners each year to bring their meetings and conventions to Greater Raleigh. The Bureau’ s services team helps each planner host a successful event, providing attendance promotion, visitor information and much more.

Our assistance is free.
When our clients host successful events and bring more visitors to the Raleigh area, we all win. Visitor spending helps power the Greater Raleigh economy, reducing the tax burden on local area residents— and covering the cost of GRCVB’ s brochures, staffing and services.

Both the Bureau and destination have international track records.
Greater Raleigh has a history of achievement in hosting international meetings, such as the XXVI International Association of Science Parks World Conference. And, the internationally accredited GRCVB has won the Meetings & Conventions magazine’ s Gold Service award four years in a row.
