Incentive
Plan Your Event – Incentive Programs
Inspire your sellers to overachieve. Applaud your customers’ unbound loyalty. Celebrate team innovation. Reward peak performers in Canada, where your incentive program ROI is as wide-open as Canada itself.
Warmly welcoming, Canada delivers incentive rewards with meaning. Recognition events come alive in diverse, cosmopolitan cities brimming with spirit and Canadian hospitality. Top-notch mountain, coastal and spa resorts become adult playgrounds, and some of the best places to say, “thank you.” Honour your best of the best with only-here, only-now, only-with-us experiences in alluring, off-the-beaten-path destinations. Watch Canada leave an indelible mark on your team’s collective memory. Then get ready to receive your own accolades — for choosing to come here in the first place.
Incentive Infrastructure
International Airports
22 International Airports with direct flight service to the US, UK, Europe and Asia.
Accommodations
In Canada you’ll find more than 50 different hotel brands with names you’ll recognize. Together they total 450,000 hotel rooms in a growing list of 8,200 properties. Choose from sleek and modern downtown meetings hotels, or hip boutique properties in the heart of our cities’ cultural districts. Iconic castles and chalets standout from coast to coast, while cozy mountain lodges are just far enough away from it all, yet close to everything your delegates desire.
Before and after the main event, guests may extend their stay at one-of-a-kind accommodations they’ll only find here. Possibilities include:
The ultimate Canadian getaway in Ontario’s cottage country
Heli-hike to a backcountry cabin, high in BC’s mountains
Take a luxury train journey through Canada’s west
Tuck into a French Manoir, while exploring Québec’s artistic Gaspé Peninsula

Canada offers a network of professional DMCs adept at executing the finest incentive program details. From transportation logistics to creative event design, to orchestrating all those behind-the-scenes, limited access details that create enduring memories — you’ll find our DMCs professional, organized and distinctly Canadian.
Creative Event Space
Sip cocktails at sunset from the top of a mountain. Dine on ice over a frozen river. Party like polar bears in Canada’s north. Feast like royalty in a baronial castle or in the world’s largest log-cabin. Celebrate your team’s accomplishments in unique, creative and extraordinary venues from coast to coast to coast. Connect with the Destination Canada Business Events team to begin planning.

Holding an event in Canada never fails to surprise and delight our clients’ attendees. One of The Performance Group’s (TPG) stand-out incentives for a technology client was held in Banff. Thanks to Canada’s luxury hotel options, countless activities, and general graciousness, the event will go down as one of our client’s most memorable. Thanks for making TPG shine.
The Performance Group
When we have an organization that comes to us and says, ‘Where should we meet in Canada or otherwise’ Montréal is a city that we bring up often because it really is a great city… from a cultural standpoint and some great venues to work with. The lift is easy with lots of great transport to the city. I just think the city has a lot to offer. There’s good value in the city for organizations. It’s a great city to sell.
