Laura Oviedo, Director of Meetings & Events at CGLOBAL, recently participated in an exclusive familiarization tour organized by the Lisbon Convention Bureau. This experience, shared with colleagues, allowed her to discover firsthand some of the most outstanding venues, hotels, culinary offerings, and experiences in the Portuguese capital and its surroundings.

We would like to extend our special thanks to Ana Mendes and Patricia Marques Correia of Turismo de Lisboa, the Lisbon Convention Bureau team, João Santana, our guide throughout the experience, and the partners and suppliers who made this program possible: Altis Belém Hotel & Spa, Ondas de Angelo, Vandelli Botanical Garden, Portuguese School of Equestrian Art, Nunes Real Marisqueira, Centro Cultural de Belém (CCB), Real Fado Concerts, Cervejaria Trindade, Pátio da Galé, Naturway, Food Events Network, Darwin’s Café, Maré by José Avillez, Tuper, Palácio Nacional de Mafra, Quinta de Sant’Ana, Oceanário de Lisboa, and Pap’Açorda.

These experiences allow us to continue broadening our vision, strengthening relationships, and discovering new ways to design the best events in some of the world’s most attractive destinations.
