Nepal is fast becoming a popular MICE (meeting, incentives, convention and exhibition) tourism destination in Southeast Asia. MICE tourism converts the dull annual business meetings and conferences into an enjoyable and refreshing event for the delegates and attendants. Be it a meeting for bringing people together either from within one company or from a broader spectrum or an international conference of 100 delegates or product launch party or exhibition, MICE tourism caters to all.
Nepal has a vast range of hotels, convention centers and conference facilities.
In Kathmandu there are several five- star hotels with convention and conference facilities. Some of them are the Soaltee Crowne Plaza, Yak & Yeti, Hotel Everest, Hotel de l'Annapurna, Hotel Radisson, Hotel Hyatt, Hotel Shangri-La and Hotel Le Meridian. Besides the conference facilities at the five star hotels, there are alternative centres like the Birendra International Convention Center (BICC).Located in the heart of the city Birendra International Convention Center has state-of-the-art facilities for conferences and conventions with sophisticated audio-visual, lighting, communications, catering, ventilation and parking facilities.
Other venues in the capital include the Royal Nepal Academy, Rastriya Sabha Griha (City Hall) and Russian Culture Center.
