Let's talk planner math. How do you balance average daily rate with food and beverage, and AV, without blowing the budget or the delegate experience? That is exactly the conversation we want to have with you.
Roxanne Kennedy from Meet in Kamloops will be at theEVENT in Vancouver, September 14-16. Come find us and let's work through the numbers together.
We love planner math. 🧮
BC provincial ADR: $230. Kamloops ADR: $133. That ~$97/night difference? Redirect it to the moments that matter like a wine-paired gala reception, a standout keynote, an off-site your delegates won't stop talking about.
3,000+ rooms and a team ready to help you make it happen.

Zero-proof cocktail hours are showing up on more event agendas, and for good reason.
A well-built mocktail menu means every guest gets a drink that feels intentional, not an afterthought grabbed from behind the bar.
It's an easy win for planners too. Non-alcoholic ingredients are often more affordable than premium spirits, and a thoughtful zero-proof lineup gives your reception something to talk about beyond the open bar.
In Kamloops, this fits right into what our venues already do well. Local wineries, breweries, and caterers are used to building custom drink menus, so adding a zero-proof option is a conversation, not a special request.
Unsure where to start? That's what we're here for.

Roxanne Kennedy attended the Canadian Meetings + Events Expo in Toronto earlier this month.
Meet in Kamloops invests in this show because CMEE is different. With 500 companies and 3,000 attendees, every single person on that floor is a verified meeting, event, or incentive planner.
This year we went as part of Outside the Box BC, our destination partnership with Meet in Nanaimo and Meet in Penticton. Splitting the cost three ways changes the math:
✏️More buying power. A national presence alongside Canada's biggest cities, at a fraction of what it would cost to go it alone.
✏️A stronger pitch. Planners get a multi-year rotation across three of BC's best riverside, oceanside, and lakeside destinations instead of a single option.
✏️ A smarter budget. Lower travel and marketing costs for each of us, without losing reach or relationships on the floor.

YKA LINK is a new alliance working to grow air service at Kamloops Airport (YKA) and position our region as a central gateway to BC's interior.
The initiative brings together Kamloops Airport, Destination BC, the Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association, Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Tourism Association, Tourism Kamloops, Tourism Sun Peaks, the City of Kamloops, and the Thompson-Nicola Regional District, all working toward the same goal: new and expanded air routes, and stronger regional connectivity.
For meeting and event planners, that translates directly into fewer barriers between your delegates and Kamloops. More air service options mean more flexibility when you're building a travel plan, and a stronger regional network means Kamloops keeps becoming easier to reach from more places.
We will keep you posted as new routes and connections come online. In the meantime, our team is here to help you plan around what's available today.
